Bill Gates: DVDs doomed in less than 10 years..
Wednesday, July 14, 2004 by Frogboy | Discussion: WinCustomize News
DVDs will be obsolete in 10 years at the latest, Microsoft boss and founder Bill Gates predicted. Asked what home entertainment would like in the future, Gates said that DVD technology would be "obsolete in 10 years at the latest. If you consider that nowadays we have to carry around film and music on little silver discs and stick them in the computer, it's ridiculous," Gates said in comments reproduced in German in the mass-circulation daily Bild. "These things can scratch or simply get lost."

If size of bit information size were to be down to just atoms, something solid state the size of one cube inch would be more than entire state worth of media storage.
I'll bet that by that time we would be laughing on how small GB, TB and even Exabit were.
I'm sure thats enough storage for movie done in *3d* hologram.
