Interesting article today in The Globe and Mail about the impermanence of archival formats... Except vinyl.Got me curious. Calling upon the author to explain, we learn:
In Britain, media have been reporting a strange mould affecting audiotape and videotape. Thousands of kilometres of magnetic tape have already been destroyed by the dust-like substance...It seems, dear music lovers, that nature is rebelling against our inferior audio and video formats! It's almost like some summer blockbuster with that wonder-eyed Zooey Deschanel and what's his name.
