Yours.co will save permanent copies of photos, videos posted on social media
A new service is offering to store permanent copies of photos and videos posted to social media sites on archive-grade optical discs that they claim will last 1,000 years.
For an $8 monthly charge or an annual fee of $89, Yours.co will automate the secure archive of up to one terabyte (1TB) of data stored on Instagram, Flickr, Google Photos, Smugmug, Dropbox, Facebook and Google Drive. The data is burned to MDISC DVDs or Blu-ray discs, which are made of a "glassy carbon" material that's substantially resilient to oxidation and has a melting point of between 200 and 1000 degrees Celsius.
