80% of users have no real need for >30-40mpix anyway, but the brand wars continue. Heck, half the people that DO have 40-45mp and above (a non-insignificant number of 61mp users too) complain about file size as it is!
Many of us have used the 50MP 5Ds/5DsR since June 2015. RAW file size was about 65MB.
Compared to eight years ago hard drives today have twice the capacity and CPUs today are roughly five times faster (in some cases more than that). Obviously for financial purposes a business would use the lowest MP that the market requires. Most here are private users, so outputs vary. Especially those high-falutin' new Ultra MACs should process 80-100MP files with ease. A bog standard NAS can hold 160TB of low cost drives so bulk storage is not mush of an issue.
