Is there need for more aminet mirrors? How many TB are they these days? I guess I'm worried there are enough of them. I'd hold an offline archival copy of it helps, at least until I die. I wish someone would create larger WORM media, like those DVDs made of rock.

Yeah "stone" 100GB M-DISC bluray discs are ~$10/ea. 100GB for 100yrs* ($0.10/GB). https://amzn.to/3KpYAfl https://amzn.to/3KpYAfl *maybe

  Those are nice, but we need 10TB now.

    They used to make BD-Rs using this technology, but switched to a cheaper (supposedly not as long lasting) method without any change in branding. It was a minor scandal among datahoarders

My mirror says the aminet files take up some 59G, so it is not very large in todays numbers.
