Why would you expect DVD to be better? I'd expect it to be worse, for the obvious reasons -- smaller physical bit representations, packed

Because it's newer technology which ought to have incorporated lessons
learned from the CD history.  Perhaps that's wishful thinking.


Ah; well, perhaps it is, but it's not *crazy* I don't think, either. I feel like it's not really "new" tech, since it's so very similar to CD-R. To me it feels like old tech pushed very hard to achieve the much higher densities. The disk layering and the dyes are to the best of my knowledge *very* similar.
