I like the idea of Flash, something like 200MB/Sec download speed and no moving parts like HDDs/Optical drives to break/pay for!

That's all nice of course, but we'll have to see how much half a Terabyte of flash memory will cost in the same timeframe. It could just be too expensive as a read-only support.

Why would you need that much? Most games don't go above 10GB's now, and the capacity/price would increase/decrease very steadily as the generation progressed.

 

 

I assumed that the most commercially viable storage medium should at the very least be shared between gaming and movie industry. That requires today space in the range of 30-50GB, but it will easily get to 200-400GB when mass market catches up with the prosumer 2k-4k resolution that will be common in 5 years.
