Sony just announced that they will not make more, more hard drives.

I think it should come as no surprise. Since I bought my A-drive from a laptop in 2006, I no longer use floppy disks. In fact, after I sold my desktop and now have a laptop for every adult in the house, I have a drawer full of floppy disks. Oh man, I hope I have not ever access to information on the disks.

While you, the readers? When was the last time a disk was even used? Or just use flash drives or memory cards now?

It seems that the discs are now dead to join the club format vinyl, cassettes, laser discs on, Reel Reel, 8-Tracks, VHS, Betamax and. While they continue to sell these products anywhere, but they are not close to the high quality of life at the top.

In addition, Sony has sold 12 million records in Japan alone hard drive. I estimate that this number is not sufficient to make a profit, otherwise they would not put an end to this format.

Here are the formats of the media that I think the next to do:

1) CD-music. Given play iTunes and other digital formats on our MP3 players are music of choice these days, how long will it take before they are completely non-existent take?

2) DVD. If Blu-ray will it be, then this DVD VHS was, replaced.

3) Blu-ray. Yes, Blu-ray. Are we not at the point where we can just save all our movies on a hard drive and can be easily downloaded from a third party source?

4) film. We now have digital cameras. In fact, I have in my phone. Hello?

Sony will not stop until these disks March 2011. one shares a better place if you have one those who believe in this format, as the guys who do not give up vinyl.
