Lots of copies on flash chips are all going to be gone in 100 years.

I don't trust flash chips at all.

My older media is all pretty much unreadable for one reason or another. My solution is to buy new drives every year and copy everything forward. Fortunately, the capacity keeps rising so that works out rather well.
