Open question to folks who archive old TV from VHS and such:
Is it a good idea to digitize something of which there's already a better quality version out? Or is it a waste of time and resources?
Because I think that's why my VHS tape archiving has slowed down, because I stumble upon stuff in my collection that's already available elsewhere.
Like, is there any demand to post an episode of Card Sharks recorded off GSN in 2001, when someone's already uploaded a higher-quality version taken from Buzzr a year ago?
Cause that's something I'm noticing a lot when cataloging my VHS game show collection: Lots of duplicate shows already available in better quality.
