Thank you, goodboy. The problem with research is that the future can not be told based on the present technology which you are looking into. While you are right for the time being, the changing technology is distorting the perception of the fact that harddisk ($150/stream) is a cheaper streaming media. It uses 128kbyte of sram for buffer. So the streaming is not exactly contiguous. The cheapest is CDROM at $50/stream and the speed will reach 33 mhz (scsi) transmission some day, which is probably 200x (currently 32x is the fastest) of original cdrom speed. But that transmission is all sram driven (buffered), rather than mechanical speed alone. No one talks about cdrom any more, although the media is the only media available other than the tape cassette (bigger cassette than the VCR) which broadcast people use. And CD-R is only a buck a throw. DVD is the coming thing but no media, no low price and no popularity yet.

All this does not change the fact that CCUR has something but what? Only the incoming revenue will tell.
