So? Even Blu-ray is compressed. Really, it's just a question of the degree of compression and efficiency of the codec used. How many non-video professionals or hobbyists actually watch uncompressed video? You'd need a multi-SSD/HDD RAID set-up to get enough disk throughput for HD video.
Another thing, 128GB is certainly enough for a week's worth. Surely you won't just be watching videos on your tablet for the entire duration of your vacation?
We've cancelled cable TV at home and just use streaming sources to supplement free OTA. Our bandwidth usage is around 250GB per month (I reckon 80% of that is either Netflix or Hulu). Usage is around 5~10 episodes of Family Guy or Futurama or Simpsons and 2~3 full-length movies per day.
