Just a quick question: in Hungary it is impossible to buy a 74 minutes writable CD (650 MB) even in CD-RW version. The "default" is now 700 MB/80 min. with strange capacities emerging (like the 1 GB CD-R, I don't know how well can one store data on them, also I wouldn't place my life on a CD which were written at 52X speed, but that's another story).

So why should a CD be under 650 MB these days?


I think it's Debian's policy. Debian is for everybody. It's open. It's free. And everybody can read a 650 MB CD (It doesn't mind if they have a last-generation DVD or a 2x CD-ROM). And you can write it in a 700MB CD-R (or bigger).

6 o 7 cd-pack? It doesn't really mind (i think).
