Mempile is using the same technology as the failed 3d Constellation and
probably has alot of the same people involved.

Great potential and I commend these guys.. but adding this as a 3rd option in the HD optical format war is gonna make basic consumers' heads spin (as if they werent already with all the propaganda spread about the formats).]]>Aug 23rd 2007 10:12AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/23/mempiles-teradisc-fits-1tb-on-a-single-optical-disc/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/23/mempiles-teradisc-fits-1tb-on-a-single-optical-disc/Aug 23rd 2007 11:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/23/mempiles-teradisc-fits-1tb-on-a-single-optical-disc/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/23/mempiles-teradisc-fits-1tb-on-a-single-optical-disc/

$350 for a 1TB drive right now: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822145167

In 2.5 years, 1TB drive will be $100. The only benefit here is if the disks are cheaper than quoted in the article, and if they last longer on a shelf than a HD. $3k for the drive + $100 per 1TB disk is still a hefty premium, though if storage space is tight I can understand.

But yeah, this isn't competing on price.]]>Aug 23rd 2007 10:27AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/23/mempiles-teradisc-fits-1tb-on-a-single-optical-disc/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/23/mempiles-teradisc-fits-1tb-on-a-single-optical-disc/

what are you guys n00bs? I call n00b. who the hell complains about soemthing a few hundred times higher in capacity. ya, discs might cost $30 at the start. wow, surprise, it's not like best buy is selling blue ray discs for $30 right now, or that one dvd-r's came out years ago they cost $30. n00bs.

imagine a few years after release walking in and buying a 25pack of 1tb disks for $12.99. that's wicked.

as for blue-ray dvd or a 3rd format... blue-ray and hd dvd already lost, people download, I for one am only lookign at disks now as a storage media for divx/xvid media, I coudl care less about buying a movie at bestbuy. either downloading legally or illigally, either way I'll be downloading but not bothering with which 'format" is better. codecs are the only format I'm interested in and my computer+xbox play em all.]]>Aug 23rd 2007 12:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/23/mempiles-teradisc-fits-1tb-on-a-single-optical-disc/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/23/mempiles-teradisc-fits-1tb-on-a-single-optical-disc/Aug 23rd 2007 2:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/23/mempiles-teradisc-fits-1tb-on-a-single-optical-disc/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/23/mempiles-teradisc-fits-1tb-on-a-single-optical-disc/
