Hi guys... just thought I'd start a thread in relation to this. Has anyone started using it yet? I hear it can store up to two hours of HD video! Is it DVD-9 yet?
Dual Layer DVD!

We’re putting out a DVD project on DVD-9 format, but there aren’t any consumer burners that will deal with this format. We have to send a DTL tape to the DVD manufacturer and they create a glass master and press the copies. My DVD guy says that is the only way to do DVD-9 format right now. We use a DVD company that outsources to Singapore to save on cost. They have really good rates if you’re looking for 1000 unit batches or more. http://www.megalodon.com/dvd_replication_gateway.html

the problem at this point is in geting the DVD-9
media (or DVD-DL if it's consumer). The drives look
nice, but I've been unable to find any mdiea for them

I remember hearing something about dual layered DVD+Rs. . . does this sound familiar to anyone else? They don't have DVD-Rs that are dual layered, but I do remember hearing about the DVD+Rs. . . . maybe it was a typo.
Ah, just saw the burner link a few posts above, cool.

The burner may be nice, but you're not going to find any replication company who'll accept those discs in making a DVD-9 master. It'll be a while until you don't have to go with DLTs
