I guess I never thought about this before, but it strikes me that
what's unique about digital archives is that they are "living" unlike
archives of traditional documents. You want to keep the digital
archive replicating to newer storage medium and actively test it for
integrity and redundancy because the bits themselves are what matter
and they are abstract and the medium on which they are stored is
transitory.
Interesting!
