 A battle ship and a destroyer and a cruiser are ships.

 And they are all DVDs. They all hold the same amount of data,
 they all use the same data format, and they all are written and
 read by variations of the same process, except the commercially
 pressed DVDs. So, if you say thats the difference, than either
 the pressed DVDs are not DVDs, or none of the others are DVDs.

 If you think about it, really think about it not rationalize it
 as you have been doing, if the difference is between a DVD-r And
 a DVD-rw, then tell us how you decide which is really a DVD, and
 which is not. And by what authority.

 Or, if you disagree, please be sure to include your redefinition
 of a Battleship and a destroyer and a cruiser as not all ships.
 Tell us how they differ.
