Man, I'm so sick of that comment. Especially when in this case, the average consumer will probably never need more than that. Video quality is hitting maturity now, as music files did a few years ago. This means that video files will no longer be growing, in fact, they will be shrinking.
Microsoft have already announced that Windows 7 will be smaller and lighter than Vista, so that will be saving space.
Most documents and files will soon be stored via cloud cumputing, anyays. And very little will be stored locally.
Mark my words, large consumer HDDs (and SSDs) will be obselete in 15 years, as the majority of content will be stored elsewhere and accessed from the internet.
