Nice to see the prices dropping already...!

For RE? That's actually not too bad at this point.

2x BD is 8x DVD. 25G/4.7G = 5.3 (six discs to hold 25GB)

So, calculating for same capacity and same speed:

8x DVD+RW - About $1.75 each

$1.75 * 6 = $10.50 equivalent value, not including the convenience of one disc v. six discs.

So, $14.99 this early is actually approaching a decent value, PERIOD. And pretty much a damn good deal for anyone spending $500 - $1000 on a burner.

Nice - I wonder if we should try to get a tracker thread to monitor media prices...?

Definetly tracker would be good to have !

And not only for media but also for PC drives. And not only tracker but predictions from respected and influential sources about prices in future.
For example I am ready to buy PC drive when price falls around 350$ for device and $7 for single side 25GB media. And I would like to know exact month when it's going to happen in order to start saving money
