I had Beta for years, then caved in to VHS when I "had to," and I've already seen dvd turn into another pointless two-party system, the winner of which will soon be rendered obsolete by 3D or whatever kills that in two years.<br />I resent the streaming from the cloud for its nickel-and-diming, plus standards come and go just as frequently online. As you can see it's a sore point all around. I don't see why it should be impossible to view my materials twenty years hence. That's what I worry about with e-readers too.notagainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02915679111849352765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-881842661768630727.post-66224839329383866922011-08-18T10:34:48.686-07:002011-08-18T10:34:48.686-07:00The most interesting part of this post for me is t...The most interesting part of this post for me is that you had worn out your VCR but haven't bothered to get a DVD player, which, as you say -- is an 'already transient medium'.<br /><br />Will we be collecting DVD players in 20 years?Cameronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11633967390492270136noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-881842661768630727.post-62979906437028812262011-08-18T02:23:15.242-07:002011-08-18T02:23:15.242-07:00I would use a Lettera 32 on the lam.I would use a Lettera 32 on the lam.Mike Speeglehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08648532407369443335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-881842661768630727.post-22238301724170305872011-08-17T20:57:22.300-07:002011-08-17T20:57:22.300-07:00Nice to see a Studio 45 and Lettera 32 in a movie....Nice to see a Studio 45 and Lettera 32 in a movie.Ton S. https://www.blogger.com/profile/10691201724230891974noreply@blogger.com
