Erm, actually they have. DVD fits something silly like 7 hours of 16bit 44.1 sound on. Out this Christmas in Video form... g.

DVD (Digital Versatile Disc) developers are talking about storing 18 gigs on one disc. Which quick mental arithmetic tells me is enough for 30 hours of CD-rate music. Add in some kind of minidisc-style compression and you could have a whole week's worth of music in one purchase... All of a sudden the Aphex Twin LP argument seems very petty.. You can be sure no-one is going to be filling that much space in a hurry. I predict we'll see music bootlegging on a massive scale when this technology comes out - imagine the whole Warp back catalogue digitally copied on one bootleg disc for 20 quid.. Cheerio!
