I haven't watched it yet but, apparently, the documentary about Lollapalooza that was just released was largely based on content from their archive. I don't know the details but MTV was somehow involved in the production. So, that's all to say that their archives are undoubtedly a treasure trove of historically, culturally significant media. It's a shame only the select few get access to such a resource.
- portaouflop 2y agoThe same is true for so many archives and collections. I think one of the worst crimes of modernity is to lock away knowledge and art for the sake of „protecting and sustaining it“ - copyright is broken and needs reform, the current system does not serve it’s intended purposes and we need to come up with something better.
