Optical storage devices are likely to return with a jaw dropping capacity very soon.

What's worth capturing on a 1000 TB disk?
I can't imagine any use for a personal computer at this point, but it could already be useful for servers of big websites.

And as quality improves, we'll need more space. Once we thought a 400MB game was very realistic and had an incredible amount of features. Now an open world game that looks half decent needs 15GB.

A library of videos.

It would take such type of storage to do high quality videos of whole series and their off shoots.

@YMITheWayIM now figure in 8k video streaming!

Not 1080p or 4k!

While you're at it figure Dolby surround sound.

@DeWayfarer Still like every movie ever made, on one disk, mind boggling indeed.

@YMITheWayIM soon it will be virtual reality videos.

This is why the storage technology needs to keep up with the video technology.
