Tippett Studios or Phil’s name should probably be in the title here to give this the audience it deserves. He’s a legend and many many nerds will know his name.
Hosting 90GB on Internet Archive is step one. Mirroring the torrents is step two, before copyright lawyers notice the auction bypass. Seed it while it exists.
I think the context makes it clear. But, equally, you can argue that the CD format was physically locking the files to that binder, but now the data is digitised it is more easily accessed and shared.
It's incredibly obvious they meant "to put it online", even if the content was already digital on the CDs. This kind of pedanticism is extremely tiring and antisocial. Grow up.

Anonymous hero rescues 90GB of content from CD binder spotted at auction. Beautiful.
this is great to see. Losing all that material to private collections would have been a shame. thanks to everyone who helped preserve and share it.

Huge thanks to him. It’s a real shame that so much material in this world, for one reason or another, will never see the light of day.

I'm a bit confused by their use of "digitized" - isn't the stuff on a CD-ROM already digitized?

No I'm really not sure what they mean.
