It's all fun and games until your computer turns into a black hole because there is too much information in too little of a volume.

Even better! According to no hiding theorem, you can't destroy information. With black holes you maybe possibly could be able to recover the data as it leaks through the Hawking radiation.
Perfect for long term storage

Can't wait to hear news about a major site leaking user passwords through hawking radiation.

Really-long term storage :)

Longer than your lifespan, too.

Longer than the life span of the most long-lived star. By orders of magnitude.
