It's a tried and tested technology in which all the bugs have long since been ironed out, and it has all the functionality I require; it's easy to use 'anytime, anywhere'; & it's the only reliable archive medium we've invented so far.

That probably says something about the endurance of ideas beyond the media they are committed to.
