Which brings it back round to the point zvi made, re: re-archiving.

I've spent most of my fannish life in Due South, where the canon closed a decade ago! Pawing through older rec lists, with the help of the Wayback Machine at archive.org, I collected enthusiastic reviews of a fic that was no longer available.

I was thrilled when I saw it on the http://audiofic.jinjurly.com archive, and yet I also wondered ... which led to my post.

I think this is also a meta-issue for producers—writers and recorders.
