It’s easy in hindsight, but I think digital cameras had lower quality initially, and lower capacity, but it was clear that it’s a question of scaling until they replace film. Especially with instant feedback. Similarly early amazon was already useful for what it did.

Trusted transactions are already done. The distributed part doesn’t solve a realistic problem in 99.99999% of use-cases. That’s why I think cryptocurrency feels like a solution looking for a problem.
- highwaylights 4y agoTo be fair, digital cameras still aren't close to film in some key ways (but excel in others). Good quality film stock, even from the 40's, is an incredible artefact owing to it being essentially infinite resolution. Sure, there are artifacts and degradation, but if you get a chance to check out a 4K transfer of something like Casablanca it's really quite mind-blowing. It looks like it was shot this year, albeit in monochrome.
