If anyone wants more detail. The 2021/2022 capital expenditures for the British Museum totaled just over £25M. The digitization will take at least 5 years. So at worst a 10% increase per year in capital expenditures for them.

Only 12 million? Sounds like a steal. The British museum has everything. That’s really good

No kidding. It seems reckless that they haven’t done it yet.

I mean that’s like 12 million more than they paid for it…
It is the British museum after all
