Has it though?
My impression (from helping family set up off-to-college computers over the past couple of years) is that modern teenagers typically have over a TB of photos shot on their iphones. And that doesn't include video. They're on track to need 5 TB of storage just for still photos by the end of their lifetime.

Maybe on a flat screen across the living room. But when you have, say, 20k (~800 megapixels), you can expand the field of view to cover the entire sphere. Add in computational photography that allows refocusing and a (limited) amount of movement, and there is the potential for amateur-shot video to soak up any amount of storage you can buy.
