Do you regret not saving old HQ photos?

[tickle_maniac]

I'm not sure how many of you remember this but websites like FM concepts and Tickling Paradise had entire sets of high quality images from many of their videos or separate shoots, among many others. I remember coming across so many of these around 2008-2009.

Do any of you regret not saving them when you had the chance? Most of those old threads are dead now with all the images missing. And the companies themselves have either taken those same photos off of their websites or their websites don't exist anymore.

Very few videos from that era are in UHQ so we don't have that material anymore, anywhere on the Internet. The great costumes, models, settings, expressions, all gone forever. I wish I had saved them when I had the chance....

I mean, I usually watch retro porn so it's not something I miss because that's how I live. I don't really miss it because I tend to find old history posted around when I Google for things.

Had several of them in print form for many years, and they were great. Eventually, though, they looked grainy, worn and quite dated. Have since discarded in favor of newer digital stuff.

I saved everything I like. Very good foresight!

Yeah pissed that I didn't get all of what was available pre 2002 and when I was a member of Tickling Paradise either they were changing what was available per month or I didn't download some stuff because from time to time I've found a pic that I didn't already have.

I regret not digitizing my stuff - some of my own productions are now lost media because of that, and I had some old, really classic tickling videos on VHS that are probably lost forever as well.

I dont save anything tickling related. dont want any evidence used against me.

I remember the days of the floppy disk where you could store 1.44 MB worth of data. You had to carefully pick and choose WHICH images you wanted to save. Ah, those were the days. I'm glad we're a far cry from back then

I save everything . . . just ask my poor, hopelessly organized wife. I probably have 5TB of material going back to the late 90s. Never bought any of the HQ photo sets though.

I have boxes and boxes of VHSs and software to transfer them to digital. I just need to find a working VHS player. I have 2. One doesn't turn on, and the other one eats tapes.

I save everything now. Haven’t been around quite as long as some of the guys on this thread but I’m currently looking at what the best way to save content would be. I’d like to have a little library so when some of the modern day producers stop producing or go out of business all of their work wont be lost

Whoever has hard media with no means to digitize it who wants to give it to me, hand it over. I did like 20 last year.

in general I always have the urge to decrease or remove a collection of stuff (vanilla or non), and then I regret my decision to some degree. it's a never ending cycle that I've done my entire life. oh well, keeps me busy lol.
