Can’t imagine that there’s much broadcast TV programing that’s worthy of archiving these days. Frankly, most is not worthy to fill the daypart slot it’s assigned in the first place.

Check out Ocarina Networks or Storwize. Perhaps instead of less, I should have said more :)</p> SMS, yes, video is compressed pretty nicely, but there are companies working to compress video files even more for storage.

Video is already compressed .. and pretty nicely. Hats off to those who thinks “zip” will do it once again :-), and writers who would get paid less if their writeup was “compressed” to remove idiotic and redundant phrases.
