Yeah, but they're probably puting 10.2 surround in it man! No, seriously, if they put in something like 7.1 Dolby Ditigal Plus, it could easily take something like 3.0Mbit/s just for the music (1.25GiB/h). And if went the DTS-HD route, they could easily burn twice as much, and that's not even mentioning the lossless options (where bit rates can go up to something like 20Mbit/s). Useless? To me, yeah sure - specially for music. But it's preaty easy to burn space with audio these days if you have the space.
Reality has a Nintendo bias.
