And further - each can be archived, sensibly or not.
The life expectancy of film, paper, and / or digital information  
depends on the intelligence and interest of the archivist; and / or  
their heirs; dependent on air quality, light intensity, time and  
temperature; they will all affect film, paper, cd's, dvd's, hard  
drives, etc.
Ultimately, those handling the material, over time, need to have real  
interest in preserving it.

Do you film folks know what your great grand children will think of  
your collection of tri-x?
