When you download a movie in HD, it doesnt take the usualy 1GB it takes like around 8GIGS of data for 1 movie in full 1080p.

Now imagine you bought downloadable movies and in the future are TV's have HDD wich max out at around 200gigs.

Sure if you only want about 25 movies to watch your whole life thats ok, but when you want another movie you have to delete the other one.

HD takes alot of space(my ps3 download a trailor and it ends up being 1 entire GB..)
Blu-ray disc will grow to any amazing 200Gigs. I actually hope blu-ray takes the place of DVD.

Hard drives are cheap, and flash storage can be miniaturised much easier than hard drives can, once they have mainstream adoption to drive development.

If anything, hard drive capacity is the only advanced thing in the average family computer.

Here are some standard prices from newegg.com  

80GB HDD $42

160GB HDD $49

320GB HDD $70

500GB HDD $100

750GB HDD $155 

1TB HDD $270

We can see that hard drives of 500GB or less are extremely cheap relative to a whole computer, and indeed Dell and HP sell budget systems with well over 500GB of total storage.
