Fairly compendious.

One has to agree wrt one of the central themes which is who does it
benefit....not the consumer....

Ditto all the new DRM laden stuff like HD-DVD, Blueray etc. etc.

As Geo has pointed out....a std DVD can hold a HD film if said film is
encoded with a modern codec.


Also I am underwhelmed by the write speed of the current crop of Blueray etc writers.

1-5x translates as how long to fill a disk?

I think I'll back up my blue-ray disk...gee I'll leave it running overnight....
