					| Definately DVD's if the game requires more than 1 CD. The price of DVDR's have gone down in price and now are about the same cost as a CD.

 Anyway DVD is the new CD. And CD is the new FLOPPY. Deal with it.

					| DVDs, of course. The only reason CD-ROMs are still around is that they're cheaper to produce; COD2 on CDs costs €8 less than on one DVD.

					| This poll is pointless since dvds will die soon as blu-ray and hd-dvd are coming. These days dvds are a must have for games.

					| Yep...the media for games, music, movies etc is gunna continually change every so often as new ones are developed and its the user job to keep up.
 I think the Blu-rar and hd-dvds will last for atleast 5 years, but then they'll find another format which can hold more info and be read/written quicker ya know?

					| personally idc as long as it works but i think dvd is easier to keep track of (harder to lose) than a bunch of cds

					| DVDs simply due to increased storage.  This is also a good medium for publishers who have many games but their game doesn't fill a whole DVD.  Throw some Demos, movies, etc on the disk and you've got something nice there.
 Like it has been said many times now, a DVD drive is extremely cheap.  There is no reason to not be using DVDs now as even kids without a job can scrounge up $20 for one.

 Yeah. Now imagine the installation
   "You need at least 5 TB to play this game."
 "Installing... This may take several hours"
 
  | 
 
 Naw, i think cpu speed would increase as need when the bigger formats become available...I mean, installing a 5 TB game on a 2ghz-3ghz would take a long fuckin time...we would need to operate in tb in terms of cpu speed
