  3. Sony to announce experimental 8 layer 200 GB ... on Super-Fast Dual-Layer DVD Writing · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Here is an extract from this story http://www.cdfreaks.com/news/10540/

    Whilst we wait for dual layer media to tumble in price, we can satisfy our craving by contemplating this news release from PC World. According to this article, Sony has cast caution to the wind and developed an 8 layer 200 gigabyte Blu-ray disc. Although they have not decided whether to commercialize such a product, they are saying a 4 layer 100 gigabyte version is expected to hit the consumer market within the next 2 years.

    Do you think movies will be distributed on this media? DVDShrink compression ratio will be like 1% !!!

    Lately the only music files you can find have names like You'reNextGeekBoy.mp3.

    You try to download Send Lawyers, Guns and Money but all you get is I Fought the Law and the Law Won.

    Amazon.com recommends you purchase an attorney to go along with the 100 GB hard drive you just ordered.

    Maybe mp3.riaa.com wasn't really an anonymous server after all?

    Metallica and Court TV are both camped out in your driveway.
