    Tippett Studios or Phil’s name should probably be in the title here to give this the audience it deserves. He’s a legend and many many nerds will know his name.

    Anonymous hero rescues 90GB of content from CD binder spotted at auction. Beautiful.

    Huge thanks to him. It’s a real shame that so much material in this world, for one reason or another, will never see the light of day.

    > “So I purchased the disc folder and digitized all of its contents.

    I'm a bit confused by their use of "digitized" - isn't the stuff on a CD-ROM already digitized?

      I think the context makes it clear. But, equally, you can argue that the CD format was physically locking the files to that binder, but now the data is digitised it is more easily accessed and shared.
