While I agree digital photos or other electronic documents can easily be lost, surely we as the first generation of digital photo keepers have a duty to keep them in an up to date well marked readable format and even better we could simply 'print' copies and write on the back what the photo is. Don't forget other electronic documents that you think is important so print and store as well.
Nothing worse than finding old family photos with nothing written on them and you have no idea who the people in the photos are and the only person who could have told you used to live in the house you are now going through.

Regarding our descendants going through our discs etc - I think they will - I would.
