So a reporter asked me for a way to explain what 10TB of storage is.

Got any cool "conversational analogies" for that amount of data?

I found in various places:
800,000 phone books
16,000 music CDs
the library of congress (books)
1400 movies (assume 700M)

Thanks for any better illustrations,

--Jason
