Who amongst us could legally afford to own 500,000 GB's (isn't that 500 TB's?) of music?

I agree - 640k ought to be enough for anybody.

I absolutely agree! :laugh: But think about it if x = **"The most generous player today can only hold around 40,000 songs" **and **y = **"a nanotechnology breakthrough that could increase storage capacity by 150,000 times" result = x * y; result = way more than a butt load! Mike

Almost enough to hold the entire Grateful Dead bootleg library.

True, it is rather... staggering. We can only hope that this technological leap will be used for purposes of goodness and niceness, rather than heavy metal... :^)

Aw geez Mike - here I was trying to 'encourage' :rolleyes: Christian to participate, and now I'm dangerously close to having a Dean Martin tune stuck in my head for the evening. Thanks. Serves me right I suppose. But still... :sigh:

Sorry - always a hazard with these tune related posts. Maybe we should have a 'Music Box' forum. Enter at own risk. :)

Was watching a Dean Martin infomercial earlier and had a lot of stuff from his old shows and of course that song was being played often! So its been in my head, or circling anyway, for a while now! Mike

Wait, unless i made an error on calcy here, that would hold about 10240000 uncompressed 16-bit stereo, wave files. And of course if you use a better lossless format, like flac or something, that could potentially double. Hey, now those crazy 128kbps MP3 people won't have any excuse for their low quality audio. I know some people don't mind it, but i just can't enjoy music encoded at such bitrates.
