Introducing POW (power over wlan)!
By broadcasting a constant small gamma wave, small electronic devices can use the latent energy to power electronic components.
From the maker of Sponsor Block, Dearrow is crowd sourced video titles and thumbnails (screen caps from video). Some say they want to see the click bait to filter out those channel, which is fair. On the other hand a lot of good channels have to do it to play the algorithm or they'll get buried into oblivion.
Wasn't me, but I'm guessing because you said they only last a few hours? I took that ridiculous exaggeration and assumed you meant writing notes on your thumb.
I'm sure there would be a million options, yours sounds quite fancy, and it will work great until Disney decides to sell giant mouse shaped drives ruining the whole thing.
I like to think that if streaming didn't take over, the industry would have shifted to selling USB sticks with the media/game. Even if they did something goofy to "lock" it, at least being on a thumb drive would be more durable, compact, and have faster read time.
Imagine a nicely organized self of DvDs turned into nighmare pile of flash drives of different shapes and sizes as each movie tries to make theirs stand out to make up the lack of a cover.
