You're absolutely right.

The GIA's account should be dead any time now (I haven't been able to get myself to look at the site since it closed, I still think it was an aweful prank to pull), and with it goes all the movies, music, interviews, and columns that site had put almost 3 years into. I have no clue where I'm going to find the Piposauru or Chu Chu Rocket commercials without that place.

But like you said, with magazines, the reference is there for as long as you care. I have issues of Nintendo Power stretching between 1988 and 1997, and if it's worth looking back at an old column, I'm gonna keep that issue until sometime down the line. If it's one thing this so-called 'digital age' hasn't perfected yet is reference archival. And at the rate that the internet is falling it'll probably never happen. Vive le Magazine Rack! Bring Back Gamefan!
