You might not be able to read them by the time you decide to take a look.  I 
have a number of things stored on CD and floppy from when I was in high 
school and college (10-15 years ago) that are gone, either due to media 
corruption or just plain not being able to read the file format.

Digital is wonderful stuff.  So are hard copies.
