Recently I've been running predictions, not on that specifically but on the
size of live sets, at 128kbps you got about 55 MB/hour, multiply by 6 hours
a night (ok so a lot of these clubs are after hours, and I'll have several
8+ hour ones available, probably chopped up by performer), by 2 nights a
week, by 52 weeks a year = a bit over 34GB/year, considering that there are
several thousand night clubs worldwide, most of which do record, we're
looking at >100TB/year of growth just from that market, adding in studio you
can probably about double that number, and this doesn't even take into
account that many clubs are 5+ nights a week. I'm really not worried about
any single storage device ever being able to keep up.
