Flash drives and solidstate flash memory cards just make so much more since. I mean we already know SD cards are already replacing discs. Yes, because I just went down to my local record shop and bought the latest Depeche Mode on USB drive. NO c'mon joyrex... what we are seeing more and more is a disconnect between the medium and the content. you'll buy a little black thing about the size of a postage stamp/something that looks a lot like a dvd you'll go home and purchase the beatles/aphex twin/rick astely's back catalogue in lossless and DRM-free from itunes 2012 you'll stick the disc/little black thing in your new sony discman 2012/laptop/ipod/media player/make a million copies and sell them on ebay.ru i seriously reckon the decreasing size of solid-state storage is gonna become an issue. fuck knows how many microSD's i've lost.

Guest Glass Plate Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 well it doesn't have to be micro, and they make cases, things to put micro sd's in to keep you from losing them.

mcbpete Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 It only seems right that Raster Noton sells most of its catalogue on SD cards.

Guest hahathhat Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 i'm keen to be able to back up my shit some other way than buying another usb hard drive. the one reason this may not be vaporware is that it would sell like hot tamales if the price point was there... i'd be willing to pay $5 a disk, $200 for the burner, that's on par with new usb drives...
