Nothing will replace the Lincoln Center Library collection of old musicals and plays. They have an extremely extensive video collection. Back in high school, I used to go to the library and watch the original broadway production footage to hype myself up for doing the show. However, its wonderful to see that people are putting that type of footage up on the internet, because it should be available to the public, not sitting in a dusty storage room.
