just to let ya know, there's a big difference in the cost for a fab to make these and the cost to buy a recordable version. Also, last I checked there isn't a movie out there that can fill a full 50 gigs. So unless you're looking to back up you're HD (which should take a lot more than 51 gigs), this doesn't mean squat. The only thing that people should concern themselfs about is compression tech which = the quality of these movies. Otherwise, the whole capacity issue is just a dumb pissing contest.

51 gig... dam! Can't wait to see what these cost. The disk alone will probably be 50 clams.
