Yeah, ton of obsolete media. If there's lack of preservation, there's probably a reason for it.

I daresay there's enough copies of Star Wars that they'll found on hard drives for the unforeseeable future, and even if they weren't, the story isn't lost.

I'm sure all the original copies of the Odyssey have long since perished, but I still heard about Odysseus and the Trojan War growing up.

Literally the entire world is aware of Star Wars, more or less.
