This misses a large point of the article:
It's not the storage size that is problematic as much as the transfer size. Websites and developers really need to be aware how long it will take for someone to even get your product. If a website doesn't load in X seconds, you're losing Y customers. If your app takes an hour to download, your customer has probably already moved on in frustration.

- chii 9y agoPerhaps the lament is that because nobody else cares, you can't actually find an app that is small to replace with!
- cakedoggie 9y agoThere are lots of apps smaller and better than some of these. Consider the running app? Or using facebook in Safari.
- juiyout 9y agoOP is saying that what we think is large now could be considered negligible tomorrow. storage or transfer alike.
