- diggan 9y agoInterested in understanding why you think it's not suitable for digital preservation? Feels like something that uses content-addressing and a P2P network is perfect for digital preservation.
- xenophonf 9y agoIn a P2P network the availability/integrity of the archived material depends on storage nodes not under the direct control of the archivist. I might trust a P2P network for content re-distribution, but I wouldn't trust it for long term storage.
- nske 9y agoYou don't have to; If you would be hosting the archived material yourself anyway, there is no negative I can see in doing it through a P2P network. Long-term storage could still depend on you and any other users helping with any of the content for any amount of time would just be a bonus.
