When that does happen people will end up with big lossy files or big lossless files. Personally I would choose the latter, being that the result would be closer to PCM, providing that these bandwidth/storage increases don't scrub out the need for such lossy/lossless codecs totally of course.Personally I don't see that happening for a long time.It's cheaper and more efficient to deliver via compression. For the likes of TV for example where bandwidth is more of an issue, then codecs will probably always be needed.
