This was mentioned on another thread recently. I will try to find it and post a link.  :)

It all sounds very good, but if a record has been destroyed how can it be “recreated” through virtual reality? I’m sure it will look nice and flashy, but in reality what (new) records will they have?  :-\

It will be interesting to see what practical use this will be.
