That really depends on the quality of the video. A low-quality video may use 1 megabyte (not gigabyte) per minute, or a few megabytes per minute. A DVD, which is already high quality, has 4.7 gigabytes for a capacity of perhaps a little over 2 hours (120 minutes). A Blu-ray disc, which has a still higher quality, uses about 25 gigabytes for the same playing time.

How many minutes are in 1 gigabyte?

A gigabyte is a unit of information (storage), whereas minutes are time, so they aren't comparable directly. One gigabyte means either one billion bytes, or 2^30 =1073741824 bytes (often called a gibibyte, the "bi" meaning binary, so a giga-binary-byte). Each byte is made up of 8 bits where a bit can be one of two values, such as 1 or 0, or true or false, or yes or no. If you mean "how many minutes of music" or "how many minutes of video" can fit in one gigabyte, that depends. A simple rule of thumb is that using modern compression, 1 megabyte (1/1000th of a gigabyte) can store about one minute of music, or about 7 seconds of standard-definition video, or around 2.5 seconds of high-definition video (both video types including their corresponding audio tracks) . So, 1 gigabyte can store about 1,000 minutes (16 hours, 40 minutes) of music, or about 1.94 hours (1 hour, 53 minutes) of standard-def video, or about 33 minutes of hi-def video.

How many gigabytes are in a trillion?

There can be no equivalence. A gigabyte is a measure of opto-electronic storage while a trillion is a pure number. The two measure different things and, according to basic principles of dimensional analysis, any attempt at conversion from one to the other is fundamentally flawed.


How much is one trillion bytes?

100 gigabytes

YouTube videos come in different qualities. The amount of space those movies take will depend quite a lot on the quality. In any case, it will be at most several MB, not GB, per minute.

Can 4 gigabytes hold software programs?

Yes, if the program is less then 4 GB it could. Most are well under that. Even a "large" application will be less than half of one gigabyte. Computers today require extra memory to enable tasks such as video and photo editing when a video file can be three gigabytes or more.
