Wrong. CD-Rom is 1/13 the size of DVD9, while DVD9 is 1/7 the size of blu-ray, so the size leap is not the same.

Isn't a DVD9 1/3 of a single layer Bluray or 1/6 Of a double layer br???

Just wondering :P


One DVD layer is just under 1/5 the capacity of a single blu-ray layer. It's still less of a leap than over CD-ROM, which had nearly seven times the capacity on a single DVD layer.


Oh yes, Single layer DVDs are just 1/6 of a Single layer bluray, but I was wondering about the DL DVD or DVD9... :)


50/8.5=5.88. Not exactly the huge leap of DVD9 over CDs (13x), or CDs over N64 carts (10x). 



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
