All the music ever made on one iPod - what would they do next?!

So how much is ever enough with an ipod??????? I'm quite happy with my 32 gig.

My first thought exactly. "I NEED millions of songs on my iPod" (which I don't have). Laughing

This does sound impressive, though. It'll be interesting to see when this makes it mainstream. Still, I'll be a bit sad to see my 2 Terabyte NAS put out to pasture by a credit card-sized smart card.

I remember when we had 32Kb on our computers and thought that was more than enough.

I also remember writing a 'Star Trek' game on my Casio programmable calculator in 256 Bytes. Those were the days. Problem is programmers now work on systems in a modular fashion so software gets bloated and inefficient, meaning we need systems with faster and faster processors and more and more memory and storage, instead of writing aspps that are simply more efficient.
