Maybe we don't measure things in terms of a 30-year-old format?

A Blu-ray is 25-66 GB, and an Ultra HD Blu-ray is 50-100 GB. In other words, this is around 1500 4K movies. Still an incredible achievement. Kryptonian memory crystals are getting closer and closer to reality.

Actually, I guess they already invented those.

This is a cool concept and all for very large portable storage... But for media I think self-hosted streaming would be much more effective, or locally playing it on a desktop for whatever future media that can't be streamed well. Can't see a use for portable storage this big yet... But as soon as it fits in a smartphone-sized personal device we've got something that can support future media types with unfathomably large data requirements (portable "full-dive" vr like the matrix, AR, retina-resolution visuals etc).

It's a million movies with the current codecs right now, after these come out, codec with higher resolution than the human eye can register by an order of a thousand will start to be transcoded, because that's how everything works, storage, memory, processor everything is gaseous in that whatever magnitude once it exists programmers will create software which will utilize every single byte of it

Ah now we spec storage space in movies, because obviously they are all the same size. When your unit is 10x worse than bananas you know you fucked up.

Greetings from someone that owns a 1 TB micro SD card. At 300 MB per movie that are 3'500 movies in this tiny, universal package. Or 20 super high res movies at 20 GB.

Why Jon Waters tho?

What year is this
