What’s a TB?
A fewyears ago, some casual comments from Miguel started me thinking that video-on-demand at home might be realistic. I’m now pushing 2TB of wireless on-demand media at home, and nothing could be easier. My Comcast wireprovides on-demand to a comparable catalog. I fully expect Netflix to be supporting on-demand any day now.
This just illustrates how inexorable is the progress in this industry. A TB is nothing now; and you don’t even need local copies of the data to get acceptable perf. Five years ago, I would have been a chump with too much time and money to even attempt 2TB online, and the experience would have sucked. Five years from now, it will be so commonplace that I’ll look like a chump for even the small effort it currently costs.
