Oh ok! Now I see what you're getting at! Well, that complicates things a bit then I guess... So with my way of thinking that would be ONE SD-card with 64GB and ANOTHER with 64GB. The positive thing is that you could easily vary the sizes of each card then; a 32GB card for the actual game and a 16GB card for additional DLC and whatnot... But that would ramp up the costs...
I'm guessing you're not a fan of this idea then, if the SD-card prizes are so much more expansive than optical media?

No. I'm in agreement. SD cards should replace optical media. But it has to have all the benefits and no drawbacks. By making people use two SD cards. Won't make that idea take off. It's why Laserdisc failed. It needed people to flip the disc. Have more than one disc. And was 3X the size of a VHS. That could fit a movie on one thing. And it's only drawback was it needed rewinding. DVD gave more benefits over VHS. VS the only drawback: scratching.

What's the current drawbacks for SD-cards then over Blu Ray? Storage size over prize point?
|
Price point. That is the drawback.

Seriously, using SD cards would be the dumbest thing they could do. Using a new format of similar size with ROMs are no problem, but standard SD cards would be suicide. No one would want to produce games for a format without any possibility for at least an halfway decent copy protection.

Who said SD cards. We really mean SD like. Those cards would have their special copy protection, as usual. Just like PS4 discs don't work in a normal BD drive.
