> They sure spent days and months of blood and sweat but can't get around to do a last mile of uploading files.

The people making these decisions didn't spend any time, blood, or sweat on producing this content. That's why it's so easy for them to discard it: they're only concerned with making (big) money, not figuring out how they can preserve content without incurring a loss. Which, IMO, should be the goal for older, historical content.

I'm pretty sure the money we're paying countries for wars would cover historical content preservation costs a gazillion times over.
