So according to Brewster Kahle's estimates for storing all US phone calls (http://blog.archive.org/2013/06/15/cost-to-store-all-us-phonecalls-made-in-a-year-in-cloud-storage-so-it-could-be-datamined/ http://blog.archive.org/2013/06/15/cost-to-store-all-us-phon...), it would only take 272 of these theoretical DVDs per year!
