People are thinking about this the wrong way, do not think of it as a oversized DVD, think of it as a write once hdd. You put a 1.6TiB hdd in and send journaling/logging data to it, or dump backups or static files. When its full swap it out, putting it in a zip disk type casing to protect the TiBs of data might be a good idea in this case. Or if they are cheap enough just swap out the entire holohdd.
Finaly all the/.ers will have an easy way to access all their pr0n. But seriously thats exactly what this is good for, keeping vast ammounts of static media/data accessable.
Especialy when the 24,900 engineers have ~3.5 billion or so unskilled labourers to call on for help and manufacturing, instead of only ~300 million. And the 4,400 have to worry more about IP and other intriqcacies, whereas each of the 24,900 could start up a company simply building someone elses product better and then export to the US once they have something origional.
Nothing stoped me, and nothing is stoping you from living with those principles. Do anything you want as long as it does not harm(adversely affect would be a better more general term) anyone else. Simple and it works, like all the best solutions. It also works wonderfully recursively, anyone trying to harm you by controling you or limiting what you can do is going against it.
What a waste of time, now we have 3 projects doing the same thing, can they not think of something origional to do? Now effectivly we have 1 foss collection of books, and 2 redundant proprietary collections because they could not work together, oh no then we might have all this scanning done 3 times faster, someone needs to scan them a book to teach them cooperation. No amount of computer resources can make up for human inefficiency.
Welcome to Japan. Anime mostly, but movies/tv/media as well are commonly released strait to video and have been for decades. OVA(origional video appearence) releases are, as is the case here, usualy bad, but when they are good they put full length tv series anime to shame. All the story of a full 26ep season packed into 3-4 episodes, movie length, and without having to change the artistic vision at all to be tv safe or fit the marketing angle the station is using, they can get into every niche in the market, which probably contributes to the enourmous media market there. The industry here could do this, but none of the media companies want to change.
That motive would be profit, Microsofts. If goverment librarys use our DRM, surely no one else will resist is what they are thinking, nevermind the fact it is a pointless waste of library funding.
If games are being used to help people deal with violent sitation maybe this will take the air out of the whole violent games make kids do bad things argument. If playing them lets kids cope better with the violence out there in the world, then maybe we can try and find the real cause, like say the parents that are blaming everything on games.
Will these implants recieve radio waves? if we combine this with the device to control humans by radio waves and put up a nice web interface maybe we can finaly give the people some control over their goverment, or at least some extra absurdity.
What is making you charge more? are the people sneaking in taking up photons that would otherwise be used by paying customers? Maybe if there was limited space, but that is not an issue with computers.
Are the art critics sneaking in the back? couples out on a date? want to be art snobs? general public, maybe. Most likely the people sneaking in are the same kids downloading warez and mp3z, the kind that travel the back alleys behind museums in the big city.
Is it a lost sale if they get a look for free? Is it worth it to ruin their life and/or passion for art over that look. Who knows how many artists were inspired because of a work they were not supposed to see, or hear. If the art in the museum is not the usual crap maybe they will even like it and come visit as paying customers later on(unless it is crap, then I guess this is your one chance to sucker them in), once they have a job(maybe they will be critics, with a colorfull history and interesting viewpoint), or maybe once they have a partner and can go as a couple, then they will have to pay for two. Maybe they will, despite the overpriced admission. Or maybe they will go back to walking the street and getting a free look at all the great local art on display. Who can say, and what does it matter so long as you are making money, unless all you care about is money, and you are only in it for the greed, then I guess it all makes perfect sense to go to such extreme lengths.
A better plan in that case would be to charge a hundred thousand or so per person, and give them a guided tour, unlocking the artwork only when absolutely nessesary. Then you could be sure no one could sneak in and view it. One person is as good as 2000 as long as the same ammount of money is made. Locking art up is better than letting it be free anyways, its not like it was ment to be seen.
Whichever block it is in you will be able to tell when it airs by the disturbance in the force. As if millions of fanboys suddenly cried out in terror, and were suddenly silienced.
4TB? what about the ten thousand(10,000) user hubs with a Petabyte or more shared. Most of them are hosted in europe where 10 or 100mbit lines are available, instead of the watered down, overprices severly limited cable and dsl that is the norm. Some people use data centers or hosting providers that do this sort of thing, but most are just run on individuals compuers and connections, and often by volunteers. P eople with the resources(servers/bandwidth) want something to do with them rather than let what they are paying for go to waste.
this kinda storage might be the future of computers but unless they improve the read speed fast it will be useless. According to my calculations it would take more then 2 years to back up your 1 inch^2 drive! I rather have a drive i can actualy use.

Maybe its the introvert talking, but It is more comfortable being with people who are confortable with themselves.

Would you prefer we cower in terror?

all your Rei are belong to us you are on the way to destruction you have no chance to survive the censors ha ha ha ha . . . . for great profit.
