Yes but did CDs have to negate one third of their storage capacity to hold redundant data?

"There is no such thing as too much space" You got that right, the bigger a media format like Blu-Ray is the less information it can hold proportionately it would seem. When 1/3 of your disc space is dedicated to redundant data because your disc space is so big, then there's really no claiming that there was "too much space" to begin with now was there.

 I don't know where you got the 1/3 of the storage capcity is for redudant data. If you're refering to the guy at the head of Bethsada who made oblivion,  he responded to what was said (about lots of data duplication) and said that those reports of data duplication on blu ray were way over exagerated. Also, with blu ray you don't need to compress textures and audio, and compressing things takes development time and decreases the quality.
