The CBC just confirmed they are halting the disposal of the archives and I honestly cannot stop shaking because we actually saved the collection. It feels impossible that those thousands of records will stay put where they belong but we did it and I am so grateful to everyone who …

La CBC se débarrasse de ses collections physiques de musique à Vancouver et dans d’autres villes à travers le pays, un trésor de plus de 100,000 ouvrages amassé depuis les décades. Des enregistrements sur vinyle et sur ruban qui ont un valeur historique, qui sont rares et précieux, seront détruits et dispersés, perdus pour tous pour toujours.
Le plan établi est de digitaliser une partie des enregistrements, mais le délai imposé pour ce faire rend impossible d’évaluer la provenance et la valeur culturelle de chaque ouvrage. Plusieurs enregistrements sont rares, dès le départ, et il est impossible de se les procurer de quelle que façon que ce soit aujourd’hui. Des milliers sont des dons de collectionneurs ou d’hôtes-radio érudits. Les couvertures des albums et les annotations des pochettes disparaîtront. (Pour plus d’informations, voir: http://cbcradiotwoandme.blogspot.com/2012/01/coming-to-garage-sale-near-you-cbcs.html et http://www.montrealgazette.com/entertainment/planning+record/6135746/story.html.)
La qualité des futures émissions de radio ou de télévision sera appauvrie par cette perte double de renseignments et de ressources en musique. De plus, la musique digitalisée ne se compare pas au point de vue qualité au vinyle gravé, raison pour laquelle plusieurs musiciens ont remis en circulation le vinyle.
La CBC, en tant qu’émettrice nationale et pourvoyeuse historique de la radio depuis son avènement dans ce pays, a le devoir d’agir tant que gardienne protectrice de ces enregistrements physiques.
Nous, soussignés, demandons à la CBC d’arrêter ce démantèlement de cette collection historique et inestimable et de reprendre son rôle de curatrice de cet héritage culturel, pour les générations futures.

I just looked at the screen and saw the number twenty-five hundred and honestly I had to blink a few times because this all started as such a small flicker of worry about those dusty records. It is overwhelming to think about all those physical artifacts sitting in crates waiting for a future that suddenly feels a lot more protected because of you guys.

I honestly did not think this would gain any traction at all when I first sat down to write it but here we are and the response is just overwhelming. It feels like people actually care about these dusty corners of our musical history (which is such a relief because I was worried everyone had already moved on to streaming) so let us just keep pushing until they see how much this matters.

I was just looking at the pile of names and thinking how crazy it is that we are almost at twenty five hundred people who actually care about these tapes and vinyl records getting tossed out like garbage. If we could all just get one other person interested in the collection right now it would push us over the ledge before the suits even know what hit them.

DIGITAL ISNT THE SAME. you lose so much when you strip away the history of the actual media.
this is cultural vandalism pure and simple. once its gone you cant get it back.
vinyl matters. those liner notes and covers are part of the art.
so many rare tracks will be lost forever. stop this now.
unbelievable. cbc should be protecting our history not throwing it in a dumpster.
We need a strong CBC

Context is everything. There is so much meta-information that can't be digitally recorded yet still is valuable.
