All: Which carrier is considered the archival/preservation standard or "optimal" medium for long-term digital streaming video storage?
We have purchased the rights to several titles and have received MPEG4 files from the providers. The vendors agreed that we are allowed to make (1) copy of each title in accordance with Section 108 USC. I'd sure appreciate any input. Thanks, Lisa M.

VIDEOLIB is intended to encourage the broad and lively discussion of issues relating to the selection, evaluation, acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
