i used to build a collection of (.bg) recordings of theatralized fairytales and kid's songs initialy but then also of recited poetry and serious-theater-plays and radio-theaters and such artistical-speech recordings.. from LPs, tapes, cds, radio.. For free for everyone bothered to search and download and enjoy, no ads or crap, before we all drown into some kind of shallow b'english.. After 10 years and 3000 pieces, spanning ~60 years, half from radio, and some popularity, it was taken down (and sued) by national Radio because of some "rights". Around the case-going, i learned there are about 10000+ pieces of the kind alone that they have there. Rusting on tapes. copied on cracking CDs. Aired few times (in 60 years). Never published.
That was 12y ago. They still do broadcast about (on average) 0.5-1 really different piece a month (when not repeating others). No such thing as podcast, download, search, whatever. Do the math.
Culture preserving.. is not what a state machinery is for.
Here a frozen copy from 2012:

p.s. it was a funny / sad finding some years go, that the biggest collection of bulgarian music and speech and such is at.. Library of Congress of USA. While the best searchable metadata on bulgarian LPs is kept by some russian. But you know, the state .bg does have a thing called "National Library"..
