I have been using computers for three decades now. All that time, people
have been saying "disk space is cheap nowadays". Yet all that same time,
my disks have been hovering around ~95% full.
Disk space is, and will always remain, a "crucial problem". If we have
more disk space, that just means people will find novel ways of filling
it up to the brink.
