 .. Snip ... 

I guess he has learnt, like most of us .. That size does not matter anymore
..  A CDR is the same size of a DVD .. And hold only a tenth of a DVD9  ...
The mountain of floppies to accommodate the 700MB of a single CDR would be
quite big ... 

I think it is ok to presume that there could be mini DV tapes holding more
than 60 / 90 minutes ... And no need to compare to VHS tapes ..
