Good thoughts on the burning of CD's, even better the use of a re-writable.
However, how many of you will actually have a functioning reader for those discs in 12 - 15 years time?? They'll be beer mats methinks.
Please, take it from a truly early adopter, there are very serious decisions to be made if you have any desire to keep images for anything more than half a generation.
My first full colour ccd generated images go back to 1973, the equipment by Shibaden (5 points for ever hearing of them). Oh how I chuckle as I hold them now - stored on one and a half inch magnetic tape - Now then how do I get a 150 kilo Ampex playback tank into that remaining half height bay in my new PC.......
Please, be careful out there folks. You're making serious decisions on whether or not you'll have a family or business archive that will last longer than a family car let alone yourselves.
