I don't think there is an infinite universe, I think it has a beginning and an end that we just can't measure. I think infinite possibilities are not infinite either, just way to big for us to mathematically describe.
Why do I think this? Because our mathematically capability is constantly growing. In 1970, you couldn't even fathom a tetrabyte hard drive, but now you can buy them. So, by my estimation, 1,000,000 years from now we will have added up all the possibilities that were once considered infinite and the number will be something like:
goginfatetra possibilities in dimension xviii, multiverse # 199.
but even then, there will still be things we can't count, and those will be called infinite.
