DM> on the tv!!! (Are the Discs 64 megaBITS or 64 megaBYTES though?)
64 Megabytes, but, you gotta figure, that's still only approximately one
tenth the capacity of a CD, and, while 20 MB of that will supposedly be
rewritable, which could elicit some interesting concepts and uses, it
still doesn't seem like a great solution to the whole cartridge fiasco.
I doubt the MO discs will be that much cheaper to produce, and the gain
in space won't be all that much -- still not enough for any significant
FMV/CG video or redbook audio.
