Media is an initial and essential ingredient of our high tech digital world. Advent of computers, it advancements, passing through different stages and coming up to the present stage where we have smaller faster units, requiring to occupy small physical space, storage devises that too occupies larger spaces and copying and storage used to burdensome.
