At that much capacity, Sony's new tapes hold the equivalent of 11,840 16 gigabytes iPhone 5s devices -- or about 3,700 Blu-ray discs.

Samsung will launch 500 Samsung Entertainment Experience areas at Best Buy stores, while Sony will open 350 Sony Experience at Best Buy shops. Last year, Samsung... ( Andrea Chang ) Sony is set to present and explain its new cassette tapes at the INTERMAG Europe 2014 international magnetics conference, being held this week in Dresden, Germany. There, Sony will explain how it enhanced a technology known as "sputter deposition" to achieve the high-storage cassette tapes, which are about 74 times the capacity of tapes being used today. Tech giants like Facebook and Google use data centers to store all the information users upload to their services, such as photos posted on Facebook or emailed through Gmail. With these cassette tapes, companies will be capable of storing more data in the same amount of space that they use today. http://www.latimes.com/business/technology/la-fi-tn-sony-185-tb-cassette-tape-storage-record-20140505-story.html?track=rss

How did this one get missed? -
You are correct on 1, 2, 4, 7, 12, 17 and 19 but boy did you mess up the title of #15. That's not the title of that tune? I have to go and pul out my Fats Waller and see what the title is.
