From Wikipedia.
So a DVD-9 holds 8.54 gbs. How come none of its' games use this much? There is no way tha Microsoft has 2gbs of copy protection, especially with all the success pirates are having.
Also, what's with DVD-10, -14, and -18? Never heard of them. I take it the 360 isn't capable of utilizing them, or they're really expensive?
