Also, consider that read-speed is rapidly improving. So for long-term storage, reading the data at a reasonable rate in the future is almost guaranteed. Hopefully write-speed will reach a similar rate of improvement. Importantly, expected corruption of the data stored in DNA is less than what one expects using other forms of data storage. So if stability of the data is a concern, DNA has unique advantages.
