The combination of the insidious threats to audio-visual content including:
1) constantly changing media formats (film, tape, digital) that make obsolete older formats and storage media, and make older generations files unreadable,
2) the ongoing physical degradation of A/V content on film and on tape,
3) the challenges of organizing, indexing and, most importantly of all, making easily and inexpensively accessible to the constituencies you’d like to make your A/V content available to coupled with the explosion of new A/V content being created directly in digital form
