The more layers you add, the more prone it is to error in manufacture.

There is no reason we can't see a BD75, or BD100 in the meanwhile. That is plenty of space for HD audio, higher bit rates, and extras on one disc.

Besides, some months ago didn't they tweak the BD25 to become a BD33? Even a BD66 is good because you only need two layers in which to make it. 16 GB of extra space over a BD50 is nothing to sneeze at. Unless you are sneezing at an HD DVD 15 GB disc.
