Sukhinder Singh Cassidy, a senior executive at Google has predicted that around 2020, all content in the world would easily fit inside an iPod.That’s because the cost of storage has dropped by a factor of 3.6 million since 1982 and it continues to decrease.
A similar prediction was made by another Google executive last year when he said that in the coming decade, iPods will be capable of storing all the music and videos ever produced.
Interesting but if these Google-iPod predictions happen to come true, we would definitely need something like a Google Mini Search Appliance for our Apple iPods.
Trivia: The max storage capacity in iPods is currently 160 GB good enough for storing upto 200 hours of video but their battery will drain after 7 hours of playback.
