Appropos of nothing at all can I just state here & now how cool DVD recorders are )

Old VHS tapes can be burnt onto DVDs. Why don't you do that for posterity? It's a matter of conservation, not copyright. I'm sure there are film libraries that are into this kind of thing, especially those which wish to preserve early films. Why don't you look into it?
