The Internet Archive is a non-profit site based in San Francisco, California and purports to hold over 10 petabytes of information in its collection. The archive contains over 3,500 films that range from features (Plan 9 from Outer Space, Battleship Potemkin, The General, M, Reefer Madness, and The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari are some of my favorites on the site), propaganda films, advertising archives, the astonishing Prelinger Archives, a Machinima Archive, and various video ephemera like home movie collections. You might also be familiar with the many other non-video collections associated with The Internet Archive, like the Wayback Machine, which catalogs websites that may eventually go dark. I personally consider The Internet Archive to be the most important resource listed in this entire feature. Why? Because it's an archive, and it isn't running as a corporate/commercial operation.
