Explicitly yes. Archiving is absolutely 100% legal and anybody who says otherwise is an idiot.

Title 17, section 108 of the U.S. Code

That’s just one country, and only covers archiving and privately storing your own media. It also doesn’t technically allow for breaking DRM IIRC, which almost all media now utilises.

Well yeah, it’s just one country, were you expecting an essay on the Global legality of Archives? You didn’t ask for a specific country, numbnuts.
