Sometimes I stumble across content that I have been looking for for a while or that I know is rare or missing "out there". Might be that I snipe a rare CD from the 90s on eBay. Might be that I get my hands on some ancient software or driver CD or some old firmware images that might be relevant for retro computing. Might be that I have some scans of a repair manual or schematics that is impossible to get.

Point is: I can't exactly put that stuff on archive.org, but it feels like I should put it somewhere so that the next person searching for it has an easier time and also so that some culturally relevant things don't get lost. What is your solution to that problem?

The drivers and old software repair manuals should be ok on archive.org

The music is iffy

I put that music on archive.org too. If there's no market for selling it, I don't think there's much of a legal argument.

Probably yeah
