If Bill Gates opens his mouth, the world listens. Even we do - especially if it is gaming related.

Mr. Gates had an interview with the German pulp-tabloid magazine Bild. Now we know that this is not one of the most trustworthy sources around, but hey, it could be true :)

In the interview, Bill was asked what he thinks the future of the everyday living room will look like. It turns out that Bill does not see a bright future for CD nor DVD as they will become obsolete and redundant. Prices for mass storage devices will be much lower than now and burning data onto a little round silvered piece of plastic will be plain stupid. Especially because they are easily damaged and lost. It will all become TV-on-demand; what we want, whenever we want it.





What about games on DVD then ? Download each and every game onto your HD - how about a crash then ? And replayability ? I know for a fact that most people like to have something material to hold on when spending €55 to €60. Anyone up for investing in a wireless High Definition Television with built in next-generation wireless Xbox console ?
