That all together wasn't bigger than HD TV? o_O

Yeah, but now you have more interactive menus, picture-in-picture, and online functions. Not to mention, in the PS3's case, firmware that updates itself over the web so it's future-proof.

And it's not like Laserdisc wasn't around before DVD, so you have to keep that in mind. "Huge" has to be in perspective in the context you're using it in.
