I've heard of other people losing all the stuff loaded onto USB drives. I keep all my videos on a 400gb external hard-drive, I suppose they're only a bigger version of the same thing, with the same risks.

I used to download vids to CD or DVD but I'm told they also only have a limited lifespan before they start breaking down and you lose the content.

I guess nothing lasts forever:-(

cheers
