Instead of just issuing a press release to announce their new way of storing information on the microdrives used in portable MP3 players, the guys at Hitachi decided instead to get really really high, and release this.

Who would want an MP3 player that holds that much though? The majority of people do not know 30,000 songs.

Although, if they use that as an advertisement, I think people will be comvinced.

That was disturbingly awesome.

the only thing disturbing about it is that companies such as this didnt think about this earlier

About perpendicular recording or advertising in this manner?

they've been thinking about for a looong time actually, it's just taken a while to get it to work.

Dr. Hobo · Post by **Dr. Hobo** » 4/10/2005, 5:07 pm

a lot of that has to do with need tho
they didnt really need to do it so they didnt
but the need was bound to arise eventually so they shoudve done it all along
