I spoke with Jim about this a few years back and he mentioned it's cost prohibitive. My take is that it's a pretty low key operation with one employee (I believe an older lady that's been doing it for decades) and its a ton of clerical work. Pretty much a small space packed with file cabinets. At his age I don't blame him for just making the few hundred dollars a day in orders vs dropping six figures to digitize everything. You have to think that the vast majority of the microfilms will never pay out. Either the car is long gone or the person never orders for it. While I see a value of preserving this for the future end of the day business is about making money and if I had to chose between passive income or making an investment that wouldn't pay back in my lifetime I would choose the former. Id image after Jim is done it would move to his son. Awesome service to have available to us but I'm not banking on it lasting much more than another 20-30 years.
