Yes, movies are the biggest space gobblers. Of course, when you have a device without expansion capabilities you make the best of it, but if you still haven't bought a device, why settle for less?

No expansion capabilities in a device holding only 16-32 GBs, that is ridiculous in my opinion. Another case of planned obsolescence -- they want you to upgrade that device next year. What they should do is stick 128GBs into the tablets, then there would be less reason to have an SD card. Those "cloud" options need unlimited 3G/4G plans and don't offer much space.

But even if you have enough memory, an SDHC card also offers easy file exchange between computers, tablets, phones, cameras. Rockdaman, even if you don't need it --- it is too easy to see what a great value an expansion slot is.

Let us hope the device makers get the message and don't blindly follow the Almighty Steve's ideas (and he only excludes and SD slot because he doesn't want you to sideload) just to get good reviews from some Apple-centric bloggers.
