I have a collection of files from the late ´90s and early ´00s. Many of them are .JPG, .MP3, .WAV, instead of .jpg, .mp3, and .wav. Why was that the norm at the time? I usually just change the extension myself.

Worth mentioning that this wasn't a problem on other systems. Unix had long, case-sensitive names before DOS existed.
