Who will inherit your digital music

[NastyD]

Saw this the other day and it makes me think. Although digital music is great I used to love digging round second hand record shops to see what treasures I could find (In fact record digging helped launch a whole music genre). But that's not all digital music might have killed.

all those GB's

i guess they are of no value but to me and history.

I keep a load of sets, just because I figure that if i delete them they may not exist anymore.

is there a digital heaven? kinda of like the source. hence they will be saved for ever. can i send them there?

Re: Who will inherit your digital music

I'd like to gift mine to MS. I think when I eventually set up a will, I'll find a way to have my music transferred to the archives here with additional funds.

I have been reading about the developing technologies and legal structures on how to make this happen. Pretty interesting stuff.

I don't have facebook, but a lot of people are trying to preserve their facebook accounts and so forth. Even going so far as to digitally recording everything and having a chip implanted into the gravestone.
