At least games make sense, as the graphics get better. Though in some cases, the compression is also better. Like PS5 games are smaller on average than their PS4 versions, even though they have higher resolution textures in most cases, just because the PS5 has better compression/decompression tech.

Compression is mostly done in software.

this entire thread is about software being dogshit? (this specific comment thread is about compression being moderately improved on one console, but that's not really significant)
