Can you imagine how much the music industry would charge for a device that had an itsy bitsy holographic projector? You already pay $20 for a cd that has one good song and 30 minutes of crap, with no extras. If i could somehow afford a bunch of these fingernail home theater systems, I would arrange them all in a circle around me, and have myself a holographic party with all of my mini holographic musicians dancing and rapping and headbanging at my feet. How's that for imagination?
It just doesn't seem practical to carry around a pocketful of these things, when you could have hours and hours of music on a portable HDD or flash device. You buy a CD, or download music, and keep it all in one convenient package. A fingernail sized device with the same capacity as a CD would be sort of pointless. It would be like carrying a dozen 8mb SD cards around.
