yep, 25 years from now a chip that is made to play Psx games could be as small as a grain of rice. The only thing that could stop Sony's plan is a complete change of the medium. In other words, something more efficient than a CD comes out. I think the HD is more efficient today, but it can't prevent pirating, so it will be something else less hackable to replace CDs.
