That legit makes me sad. I loved watched old cartoons there. Does anyone know where else i can watch them?

Nope.. Same is true of those game sites that archived old ROMs, also gone forever.

Some datahoarder probably has an offline copy.

Yea I hope so, but at the same time I would like to see this archived in a proper way. Meaning that there must also be an exception in the law to allow archiving of old software/games/....

Archiving might be allowed even now, but not with a public download library.

As far as I know, it isn't illegal to attain or have media for personal use. It is illegal to circumvent DRM and to distribute the media.

So, for example, it isn't illegal to record a stream. But the hoops you'd have to jump through in order to do so would end up circumventing DRM or with incredibly poor quality.
