What are talking about? You can get a DVD DL burner for about $40 now, an excellent one too, i bought a liteon 2 weeks ago for $42 and it burns everything.
I just hope the prices drop a lot cause i REALLY want to burn BD-R's...23GB, damn, thats a lot, i can finally fit about 90 episodes of an anime on a disc and watch it, oh crap, then ill need to get a BD player, OH YEA, PS3, how could i forget, what a bargain......a $500 machine that would play BOTH video games AND all formats of blu-ray discs and DVD's, wow, PS3 is a bargain...
Note: I was being sarcastic and advertising PS3 on purpose, i already knew it was a bargain and this is why tons of people are gonna buy it. Microsh*t goes down the drain again.
How I make extra money:(for games/clothes/cable etc)
V7 PS2 DMS4 PRO flashed w/ ToxicBIOS w/ brand new laser, a 400c, the best PS2 laser out there & V7 PS2 w/ Swapmagic 3.6+

Actually, Sony, just like microsoft, isnt incorparating and high capacity disc in their first gen systems. They may upgrade in the future, but for now its just DVD-11.

Hmm..I was informed that PS3 wouldnt use bluray in their first gen systems, but I guess that was old or false news. And yes, the DVD-11 format holds a little more than DVD-9

Did anyone read this artical:
http://www.afterdawn.com/news/archive/6583.cfm
Sony has got the resources to push this new system. If you think that Sony will sale this console at a rediculios price and the games at a unresonable price, compared to the 360, then you are just wrong. The PS3 is cool but not $500 cool.
Everytime a company comes out with a new console they lose money. All that stat-of-the-art technology cost alot considering it has to last (preform to the best standards ofthe day) for a minimum of 5 years. Most of the time they don't break even for about 3-5 years after the console launches.

I just had a thought...
The biggest advantage that Blue-Ray has over HD-DVD is that Blue-Ray will be used on a major video game platform. That fact alone will drive up demand for blue-ray discs so that BD manufacturers can start to give sony whole-sale deals. After that enough money should be left over to fund the R&D team so they can find ways to produce BDs cheaper.
High demand and cheaper maufacturing methods should even the playing field.

I really dont care which format wins the HD war. Actually, it would be better to have Bluray win, just for the higher capacity. I just hope that M$ isnt stupid and holds out just because Bluray is a sony product.

Yea, but if they try and incorporate HD-DVD's into the Xbox 360, they will have to support that format 100%. I think that would be a major mistake.

What makes you think that DVD-DL is dead. What do you do that takes up that much space?
