Is there any disadvantage to having a photographic or eidetic memory?

"Although the terms eidetic memory and photographic memory are popularly used interchangeably, they are also distinguished, with eidetic memory referring to the ability to see an object for a few minutes after it is no longer present, and photographic memory referring to the ability to recall pages of text or numbers, or similar, in great detail."

I wish I had either a photographic or eidetic memory.
My aunt does (the latter) and she's smart and nice too.
It would make me feel better for not having it, if someone could tell us about any disadvantages!

I kind of hate this song, but wow, this girl is gorgeous. I had to click on this video just to see her.
Here's a cute version of 'Memories' by Tom Hanks:
Yes. Although the advantages do positively outweight the disadvantages. I'll tell you about it below.
Nope, it's great. I love it.
Meh. I'd rather not have it.
I'm just regular folk, no special superpower. Boooooo... Can I see the poll anyway?
