I think this kind of forcasting can leave people a little synacle, when DVD came out I didn't know what would be next. Yet Blue Ray is not even pronounced winner and people are talking about a successor. Knowing what's next now, will I just wait for HVD storage?

Now it seems consortiums are pushing for technology and not single companies, this makes the thechnology much more likely to prevail.

The key thing here is speed, I was always concerend over this, I might get the capacity but how long will it take to burn to a 200GB Blue Ray Disc?

Thankfully the 1GBps touted will reasure me. Its a bit like the Megahertz mith, speed of write and read are increasing factors as the size goes up.

But is removable storage what people really want? what about the convinience of an instantly accessable HD, do I want 1TB of data stand alone? I'd much prefer it instantly accessable and searchable, so will HD get the 3D Holographic treatment?
