    A wonderful documentary about the

    A wonderful documentary about the preservation of physical media with a collection of very interesting and entertaining interviews. Mostly focuses on the Blu Ray and DVD side of things with Vinegar Syndrome, Severin and many more of our favorite companies discussed. I enjoyed this immensely and it's definitely worth a blind buy. Great purchase.

    Some neat interviews but maybe self-service. Shorts in extras are better
