what is this i dont even (http://www.itwire.com/content/view/25149/53/)

There has been speculation about the long term future of disc media, speculation that grew as the HD DVD and Blu-Ray optical disc formats fought out a close war for domination of the HD video market. Blu-Ray’s format win could be short lived, if a new disc format – known as 5D DVD -promising 1.6 terabyte storage capacity hits the commercial market.

Sorry but this isnt a big fucking deal. "long-term future?" There's no such thing in the tech industry, obviously whenever something comes out there is something else in development that will take its place.

You mean just three disks could house my entire porn collection? Awesome.

"Speaking of the future, the team also acknowledge that the technique theoretically can reach storage levels of up to 10 terabytes and beyond."

Ay!
