Don’t go to the 2008 CES until you know the enormous impact of digital storage on content creation, distribution and consumer electronics. The pre-CES 2008 Storage Visions Conference brings together technologists, vendors, retailers and users to explore the pod-, web-, life-casting consumer revolution and how you will preserve, protect, and search your life on Digital Storage. Conference sessions explore key storage technologies, privacy protection, home and mobile storage, next generation user needs and business opportunities.
"One the key points from the [2007] conference is that in the next 10-15 years HDD storage in homes will explode to dwarf corporate use .....There is this myopic fixation on commercial content. The thinking is that consumers only care about movies and recorded audio ...Storage Visions took a much longer range view and predicted that within 10 years personal content would exceed commercial. With the market success of digital cameras and Youtube these have shown that content created by individuals is important. Storage technology enables this and it brings a shift in the market of how users see content storage and use." —The Wave Report
