Nine PBS wins court order to retrieve 70 years of TV archives from Iron Mountain

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A Denver judge has ruled in favor of Nine PBS, allowing the public broadcasting station to retrieve 70 years of its archival TV data, totaling 50TB. The data was held by Iron Mountain Data Centers after Nine PBS's cloud storage provider, Open Source Storage (OSS), went out of business. The court established a process for Nine PBS to access the data within 30 days, requiring them to cover outstanding storage fees and use a third-party vendor for retrieval. Both Nine PBS and Iron Mountain must provide progress updates by mid-September. AI
