We propose a new approach to the entanglement in large quantum systems. Basically, the emphasis is shifted from attempts to find `best entangled' vectors for moderately many qubits to attempts to find complete orthogonal families of `moderately entangled' vectors for many (eventually for infinitely many) qubits. A review of the existing literature will be given and comparisons will be made of different measures of entanglement and their applicability.
