‘Endangered’ in the Presence of Good Practice Replication; clarity of intellectual property rights; preservation agency involved and capable of looking after content |

2019 Review This entry has been split out of the previous entry for ‘Digital Music Production and Sharing’ though it has overlaps with other entries including ‘Pre-production TV and Movie materials’. A separate entry has been included to emphasise the inherent and value of the archival materials relating to the recording process over and above the recordings themselves. |

Additional Jury Comments Inevitable loss of existing data but it would require major effort to fix in terms of identifying organizations who are preserving this content. Not clear that this is being done already |
