"How one of the last video stores turned non-profit with an eye on
preservation."

This seems like a smart idea: converting a video rental business with a
large collection into a non-profit library.  As they point out, every
format conversion tends to leave some titles behind, so it's good to
have somewhere you can hopefully find the most obscure works.

Share and enjoy,
