Dependency of Machine: In order to access the all digital materials require specific hardware and software.
Fragility of the media: The digital materials are stored on is inherently unstable and without suitable storage conditions and management can deteriorate very quickly even though it may not appear to be damaged externally.
However, while the media on which the data are put away could possibly fizzle, what is sure is that innovation will change quickly so that regardless of the fact that the media is held in immaculate condition, it might in any case not be conceivable to get to the data it contains. Regardless of how excellent the consideration of the media is, it will not evacuate the prerequisite to manage changes in innovation, however mindful consideration ought to make it simpler to oversee innovation changes.
Shorter life span of digital media: The ease with which changes can be made and the need to make some changes in order to manage the material means that there are challenges associated with ensuring the continued integrity, authenticity, and history of digital
Print media, however, are fundamentally restricted by their physical nature. Enter the Internet, arguably modern society’s greatest technological advancement, with its ability to digitally recontextualize the written word. Again, forever changing the nature of communication. This paper will focus on the web’s functional, social, and cultural remediation of print media. It can be argued that the Internet is a modernized version of the printing press.

Virtual and digital technologies are rampant in American culture and thoroughly utilized in entertainment mediums like television, movies, magazines, and video games. Our capitalist economy creates a fertile environment for these mediums to prosper by feeding off the public's hunger for entertainment. Because these industries are in such high demand and accrue billion dollar revenues, new technologies are often conceived in and funded by these trades: "For, in essence, all socially relevant new image media, from classical antiquity to the revolution of digital images, have advanced to serve the interests of maintaining power and control or maximizing profits" (Grau 339). That being the case, new technologies "hardly ever…advanced solely for artistic purposes" (Grau 339). Because "power" and "profits" are the central means of motivation in our culture; art, in the classical sense, is often an afterthought. In an age where entertainment and art intertwine, however, distinctions between the two based upon their creation are impossible. With advances in technology and, in turn, art, our ideas and traditions of comparison should also develop to justly analyze new media: "Although art history and the history of the media have always stood in an interdependent relationship and art has commented on, taken up, or even promoted each new media development, the view of art history as media history…is still underdeveloped" (Grau 4). In order to embrace virtual art as a valid outlet of artistic expression, its relationship to media and unique position in the history of art must first be acknowledged.
The technological aspect of digital art often leads to questioning of whether or not it can be considered art. Digital art has been accepted and embraced by the commercial and entertainment industries for many years, but is finding it much harder to become part of the fine arts community. Digital art has many hurdles to overcome before it will be fully accepted by the mainstream tradit...
...big amount of collection. This is important in order to avoid any destruction or deterioration in the early stage of audiovisual archives. Every storage room must be equipped with suitable equipment, appropriate storage container and provide security enforcement to all repository storage.
Computer software and files are no different from artistic products, as their creation also involves a great deal of thought and effort. The laws of copyright cover software. As it takes a great deal of money, skill, time and effort to produce and maintain application software, copyright also protects the large monetary investment made by the software company. The main problems found with software items are the ease of copying and difficulty of detecting breaches of copyright.
Copyright was designed for three basic reasons that are to reward creators for his or her original works; to encourage availableness of the works to the general public; and to facilitate access and use of copyrighted works by the public in bound circumstances. The three technological advances, particularly the networking, digitalized information and worldwide web has modified the economics of information benefits down. Digitalization of information has modified the economics of replica, networking has modified the economics of distribution and therefore the worldwide web modified the economics of publication. While copyright provides terribly clear rights to copyright owners, it conjointly sometimes provides restricted exceptions to people who may would like to use the proprietary work for legitimate functions that don't harm the rights holders’ legitimate commercial interests. Copyright legislation regularly permits restricted copying by libraries and archives. Library privileges granted under copyright law allow copying of any item within the permanent assortment for the needs of preservation or replacement, given that prescribed conditions are complied with. Copying is merely permissible wherever it's not moderately practicable to buy a duplicate of the item. Materials should be for reference use solely, and materials on temporary loan don't seem to be eligible. Therefore, the standing of digital material that's subscribed to is however remotely access isn't clear. Additionally, this exception applies solely to literary, musical and dramatic works, not creative works. Nor will it apply to sound recordings or films, materials that usually form necessary components of library collections, notably massive research libraries like national libraries. In the beginning, copyright law only applied to books, but this soon extended to derivative works and other translations. But today, copyright
Digital information in China defined as information or records that are created in digital device and environment, also in digital format used device such as computer for access and process it (Liu, 2013). According to Voutssas (2012), digital preservation is the process of maintaining digital information using technology according to established policies and procedures as told by InterPARES (2006). National Archive of China and Latin America faced several problems in order to establish long-term preservation of digital information. Preservation of digital information is one of the activities that face with many problems than to print or other material format. The main problems are technological and economic that will influence the process of preserving digital information. For the technology obstacle, it’s related with the software, hardware, and also operating system that information may become unreachable and unfeasible and the cost use become high than others. Long-term preservation means that preservation that establishes for long period of times and need extra costs and personnel.
The purpose of this research assignment is to put forward a convincing argument in how digital technology in the last four years have completely revolutionised the whole film industry. This thesis will attempt to focus on the main disciplines of film making and the impact that technology has had on each area. Firstly, this article will look at recent changes in the pre-production area of film making followed by what new equipment and storage facilities are being used during film production. Next is arguable the biggest transformation in the film industry as a result of technology, namely the post production stage. New methods of film distribution are explored followed by the negative impact that technology has had on the film industry with the main focus being on the illegal distribution of copyrighted film footage.
