Sony sends copyright notices to TV Museum about shows 40 to 60 years old
The title here might be hyperbole, but if shutting down a channel would make the museum ‘die’ then they’re simply not preserving the data properly.<p>I’m not sure why folks seem to think that Youtube is a good place to archive anything - sure its a good distribution system, but time and time again we see that a handful of malicious actors can shut down entire channels with relative ease.<p>I would hope that these videos are backed up somewhere else on any of the many bulk cloud storage providers out there B2, AWS, Google cloud storage, etc. etc. etc. and could, with some effort be made available elsewhere than Youtube, or restored to the platform after the current storm dies down.
