H2. Art content silos winning?

Winning at what, exactly? And why do some hardcore geeks worry about it silos winning, losing, or whatever? The masses don't care. The masses only want something fun and easy to use.

I'm guessing that most people are not content hoarders, at least with text. People may want to keep their photos indefinitely somewhere, but how many people back up their photos to a DvD disk or some other storage device?

I think users are content with posting their photos and videos to many services: Flickr, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, Google, etc.

I think that most of these people share for the moment, and don't worry much about dredging up old posts in the future. It might be interesting to view their Facebook photos 20 years from now, assuming that's possible. I can still view old photo albums from more than 20 years ago.
