That's interesting! I have a spindle of the silver disks and a spindle of 25 of
these M-discs are $53.03 at Amazon.

I don't think it will matter in 1000 years as none of us will be here to access
that data or even care if it's accessible. Who's going to bitch about $53.03
after that length of time? That would be like bitching about an interior paint
job a 1000 years later and want it painted another color and your money back.

His digitization was done years ago on media that might not last ten years.

$53 won't even be enough to buy an iksmod in 1,000 years.

$53 in 2021 dollars could be more like $5billion 3021 dollars.

Here's an interesting story about returning defective products.

Back in 1972, I worked in a furniture store. One of the old salesmen
came in one morning with an old wind-up alarm clock that he had
purchased from Sears 13 years before. It had quit working so he was
going to the nearby Sears store at lunchtime to return it and complain.

We all laughed.

Sure enough though, he came back after lunch with a brand new free
replacement.

Back in the 1970's John bought a cheap serrated bread knife with a red
plastic handle, which came with a 25 year guarantee. That was why he
chose it. I laughed at the ridiculous guarantee so he secretly kept it.
Men are like that.

Damn thing fell apart when it was only 24 years old, so he sent it
back to the manufacturer. They replaced it.

I took a broken chair back to Ikea more than 10 years after I bought it.
One of the reasons I bought was that it came with a lifetime guarantee.
I had the receipt, but it was hardly legible. They tried to deny the
return saying that they no longer offer the life time guarantee and said
it was now only 10 years. I didn't care if they no longer offer the life
time guarantee. They did when I bought it. I got my money back.

This woman tried to return something from a photo on her phone. Caused
an incident at a Pier One.

You think you've heard them all, but every day someone come up with a
dumber story.
https://tinyurl.com/42rtpz25

"She was screaming at, swearing, insulting, and threatening the staff as
she demanded to return an item she didn't have with her, just a photo of
the item on her phone," Sprague wrote in her Facebook caption about the
confrontation. "The staff were professional and respectful. But they
couldn't return an item she didn't actually have with her."
