I need to dig out some older recordings, the point is they are either lost

I've lost many original files and have only the recordings on audio casettes left.
I should digitize them. Tapes don't last forever.
I also have some floppy disks that could contain some files, but I don't even have a floppy disk drive any longer.
Saving old data is quite difficult. Self-burned CDs become unreadable only after a few years.
The best idea is probably to store it in a cloud.
