I think he or she rather meant some other cultural projects than digital archives.
There are indeed lots of cultural projects that get funding, that I consider not that important in comparison, but of course those people involved would think different. (Opera for example is heavily subsidized)

- hutzlibu 3y agoWhat do you think? For real? I am not against subsidicing art and culture, but I am against selective subsidicing. For example in germany there is a strong divide into "serious art" like opera and classical music that gets lots of money direct or indirectly - and trivial art, everyone else. Getting allmost nothing. So it boils down to taste and the favourite culture of the establishment. But there is so much other good music and performers besides the mainstream out there, who gets categorized into "entertainment" and have to struggle on their own. So back on topic, I would be fine with taking money from opera to give it to internet archives. But of course, I rather would have more money for everyone involved in arts and culture.
