My guess is that it burns 2 hours of 1080p content, possibly at a lowered bitrate. The disc will be playable on any player or PC that can handle the MPEG4/WM9 codecs, unless they decide to copy-protect it (doubt it), in which case it would only be playable on this particular player.

This is a step in the right direction. You can already download torrents of HDTV rips in under 1 GB per episode, so burning to DVD9, or even DVD5, should be possible at pretty decent bitrates.
