Dead Media

Stuff that nobody can read/see/interpret anymore.

Since computers, a couple big concerns have been

  • physical formats that become obsolete (old floppies that can no longer be read, Cd-Rom-s that decay)

  • the use of proprietary/binary formats instead of Open Formats

But it's not a new problem. See Bruce Sterling's master list
