25hr CVR ? and FDR ??
(OP)
I thought we were moving to storing FDR data off-site (ie at a ground station, not on the plane in the black box), or possibly in both places (as a data disaster recovery provision). Why not the CVR as well ? If we record 25hr we'll soon have an incident where they'll say "damn it, I wish we had 26hr of recording".

But it is probably doable in the longer term. Once high bandwidth communications become ubiquitous and standardized.

From an early article RE the accident...

Data Recorder Shows Crashed Boeing 737 Max Had Airspeed Issues on Last 4 Flights
... ...
With the data recorder in the hands of investigators, the NTSC has recovered about 69 hours of flying data by the crashed jet during its last 19 trips.
...
The lengthy recording time of the FDR is clearly pointing to unresolved issues over several flights.

There should still be on-board storage as there has been at least two incidents of intentional CFITs, and in one of them, the perpetrator turned off all transmissions from the aircraft.

PS. There are deployable aerofoil FDR/CVR equipped with ELTs. They float. After an incident, they would normally be retrieved almost immediately.
