On a flat surface, can you store more information in a hologram or in a 2-d grid?

This is unrelated — to data storage at least — but I always thought that an interesting property of a hologram was that the “image” is dispersed throughout the whole surface. If you were to cut a hologram in two, you can still view the entire image in each of the two pieces. The perspective that you can get from each of the pieces is reduced however.
