> So assuming, 4.4 GB her HD film & 2 hrs long each People bitch constantly, but a typical feature film encoded by YIFY at 720p will clock in at somewhere between 650-900 megs, leaning towards the lower end of that range. Not that it matters, the rest of your math makes it look ridiculous. Without too many tradeoffs, you could certainly put every American (Hollywood and indie both) film on such a disc. > Now the next logical question: Has the human race produced 464,000 hours of video content? Somewhere Google has a gauge that shows how many hours of videos they store... but I can't find it. > So even if we just look at 24/7 news and shopping channels which always produce original content, you're still talking about easily 200,000+ hours/year. Agreed. But I don't think that they have archival policies in place where everything is kept permanently. Even the news channels may have been in the habit of dumping everything but stuff deemed important, well into the 1990s.
