Data Hoarder

We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

Other than the internet archive obviously

I’m searching for old media, 90s popups, old magazines, weird posters, odd exploitation films, just generally anything that is almost being erased and is not commercially friendly. Where are good places to dig stuff up like that?

Google Books has a surprisingly large number of free old magazines, like a complete run of Spin.

Any way to batch download these?
