"Recorders for both the PC and consumer electronics markets are expected to become available during the course of 2004."
Looks like new recorders will be needed. Taken from here: »www.dvdrw.com/press/duallayer.ht···cdfreaks .

I fit everything fine on 1 disc..

I use dvdxcopy, and the new dvdxcopy Xpress allows you to quickly copy a dvd with a click of a button, then it will burn to 1 disc. What it does is simply cuts the EXTRAS out, I have not encountered a situation where I had to compress the quality (but the program will do this if needed).

-I have the DRU500A, thing runs fantastic.

-I have NO reason to goto a DUAL-burner now!!!!

Re: dual layer DVD recordables Coming Soon!

I’ll take 8.5GB over 4.7GB any day. Yes, I am happy with my current DVD+/-RW drive but I would prefer the 8.5GB.

Good thing I haven't purchased a DVD burner yet...I'm going to wait for the dual-layer recorders to come out first...

Does this mean we will be able to copy a hole DVD with the extras? And keep the same Sharpnes?
