this still doesn't mean DD is going to be here for a long time. A 4MB song is way different then a 70MB song and definitely different then a 900MB TV episode or 4GB movie or a 45GB HD-Movie with HD audio.

Still good that the RIAA wont have much power in the music industry soon.

 hehe, well at least one person saw through my thinly veiled guise and got to the heart of my post.

...but every time i bring up DD all i hear is 1) zomg file sizes are too big to download and 2) the consumer can't live without the physical copy and cover art.

 well....this article is just a nugget of knowledge against #2. 

and i posted this before (don't feel like digging up the old thread) but it's a nugget of knowledge against #1.

super high speed internet (up to 1.2 Gb/sec)http://www.cnn.com/2008/TECH/02/23/japan.satellite/

...it's coming.  my excitement grows.

Agree DDl's are a lot closer to becoming mainstream than some of the non-conformists here would like to believe. It doesn't matter if someone who is dead-set in their ways cannot see it, [pause, chuckle] just remebered the dilemma Christophe Colon had when seeking funding for his voyage. Anyway like i said, it's coming.  As was the case with the past media formats, the trend seems to be holding true -- audio first, then video after.

One other thing *chuckles*.....what's the price of oil again....oh yeah 100 gajiggers. If popular opinion doesn't secure DDL's in the near future i guess economics will.

"Necessity is the mother of invention" a few words to live by.
