I DO care, and i must have missed your post.
As you have said and as some have seen, there are alot of examples of digital audio and video out there, existing well before 1990.
The problem is the verification of the date stamp. The file date won't hold up in court since it could have been forged. BBS Logs or CDROM archive (purchased from a software distributor for use on BBS) are a great source of validation.
Sometimes a google search on the filename of the file will reveal an online BBS/FILE log. Combine with the file you have on your hard drive, this proves potential prior art!
Feel free to post the validating evidence to the file date of your file, and i'll add it to the Prior Art page.
