    You mean commercial dvds? They can fit up to about ~8 GB on one side. http://www.dvddemystified.com/dvdfaq.html#3.3

    DVDrs only support the dvd-5 format.

    Just because it's not legitimate or legal does not mean they are not commercially produced.

  5. Its me again.

    Is the DVD silver on the read side. DVD silvers can hold up to 18Gb (so I'm told). They are a favorite of pirates in Hong Kong. You send a movie of to a factory that will burn your movie to a DVD Silver. Provided you are buying about 100 copies of each. You then distribute this to pirates all over the world and make your money that way.

    I used to import some of these from a guy in Sweden.
