Just last month, Pioneer unleashed a 16-layer 400GB disc. With half a terabyte on an optical disc, you’d have enough room to stash over 20 movies at full 1080p high definition. Unfortunately (or fortunately), these 500-giggers won’t be ready for public consumption for another two to four years. 500GB On 25 Layers Of Blu-ray Discs Source: trustedreviews.com
