I can't tell you how much computer media I have from just 20 or 30 years ago
that is totally unreadable today. Zip drives, cartridge tape, 8" floppies,
5.25" floppies, hell even 3.5" floppies are a thing of the past. Some of my
DVD backups from just a few years ago are no longer readable either.
But I can still read books printed 40, 50 even 90 years ago. (Pretty sure
my 1872 book on chemical technology is a reprint, so I won't count that :)
