I don't think I'd rely on *only* MO for archiving. I'd also archive to CD, or 
DVD. I archived a lot of stuff to MO carts, and some time later, my cart drive 
died. I think it might have corrupted a couple of the carts before it finally 
kicked the bucket. Anyway, nobody knows how long MO carts will last (or 
anything else for that matter). Relying on only one medium might be a mistake.
