I'm with you on this one, but I don't think the tech industry is ready. There is already a successor to Blu-Ray out there, and with the current DRM war I am skeptical that the industry will go to solid state.

Not only is there a DRM war, but there is a broadband war too. Truthfully, I want to see ALL media done away with. No Blu-Ray and no cartridge. I want streaming media and games that can be downloaded directly to the console. You can knock out a 1gig torrent at 1.5 MB/s in just a few minutes (>5). And I've seen download speeds of 10 MB/s on my computer depending on the server I download from (not torrents). My point is, we have the capability to stream Blu-Ray and to distribute game files. Hard drive space is in abundance these days and is dirt cheap. So we just need the broadband companies to get their shit together (they won't).
