Its easy to justify - just ask how difficult would it be to replace them all and what would it cost you in time and money ? Now imagine the studio/garage/whatever burns down tomorrow afternoon...
Although if this is backup of physical media, you'd be better off burning a copy of the wma's to new dvd's and storing those dvds offsite - onlien archive is really only a better solution, when it's for data that you *need* to be able to access instantly in the event of a disaster. |
That's some good advice right there. Might have to start doing some off-site backups. Had never really thought about it like that but if I lost all my guitars I'd be insured - if I lost all my teaching materials and everything related to my day-job I'd be up a muddy creek with a chocolate fireguard for a paddle!
