What would anybody even use 4 TB SD card for? Storing a shit-ton of pirated movies that you can watch on your phone? Aside from that I have no idea. 256 gigs is probably more than enough for anything a normal user would do on a phone.
Portable gaming Pcs. I would love to have my entire library of games accessible offline. My emulation folder alone is like 500gb. I also wouldnt call myself a normal user though. These definitely have a niche market and probably a price tag just as niche.
File size is a major limiting factor in high speed video and to a lesser extent convenient ultra HD digital film.
At 3840x2160 (basic 4k) uncompressed 10-bit video 1 frame is about 250 MB. An hour of footage at 30 fps then is about half a terabyte. At “only” 1000 fps you would burn through an 8 TB SD card in… 32 seconds.

It’s not pirating if you own a physical copy like DVD or Blu-ray, it’s fair use. Fuck the studios for trying to take that away from us.
I have a convertible laptop with a MicroSD slot. A 4TB card would be great for backups.

You’d need some way to cache that video, though, because it’d take 24 hours to write 8TB at SD card speeds of 80 MB/s.
