Reply to comment by WalkerBRiley in 50 GB of Unreleased Michael Jackson Content Stolen in Brussels by Guybrush_Tripwood

That was my first thought. These ain't gonna be 5-10 MB a piece... these are gonna be huge files for use while mastering, right?

Assume it's .wav, 10 MB per minute. Assume separate tracks for each instrument, we'll say 100. So that's 1GB per minute. At most a couple of albums worth of material.

a few albums of unreleased tracks by one of the most famous (and some would say greatest) pop artists is a pretty big deal though.

even if it was just 50gb of MJ doodling in his notebook that would be a big deal for fans I presume. (I like MJ but I'd stop short of fanaticism)
