I wonder how much longer optical media will be needed at all... with flash memory becoming cheaper all the time even hard drives are starting to use flash technology. Of course there's still the issue of DRM to consider (optical media standards existing not just for the sake of capacity, but IP security too...).

But, until the issues of cost and copy protection are accomodated, I guess we may need to break out those UV glasses / lead suits in the mean time...
