BD movies will be staying at 50GB. The BD discs with extra layers will be used for storage.

No thank you. The more layers you add beyond 2, the failure rate goes up exponentially. Have we learned nothing from DVD_18?

What the phuck?! Is my chain being jerked here?!! After all these years of supporting Blu-Ray to the point where it is about to officially become the next format and NOW you all are saying that in order for the layers to be increased you would have to buy yet ANOTHER player?! What the HELL?! I thought that the point was that they would be able to increase more and more way beyond what they can do now past 50 GB without having to do that?! Are we finding out that we have been LIED to?! I thought that that was the point was that Blu-Ray could hold so much more that HD-DVD?! So now the multi-disc sets that I was so hell bent on becoming one disc ISN'T GOING TO HAPPEN?!! DUCK THIS SIHT if it's true! ...and what is the point of a new format if this new one is going to become irrelevant over the next ten years?! That's NO TIME at all! Listen I'm a die hard supporter of Blu-Ray and have been since the year 2000 when some independant group started creating it! But now this is some jerk off joke that we are supposed accept as some limited time thing?! I just might jump ship just back to d.v.d. as the format war is won for Blu-Ray if this is the case! What's the point?!

Hello? Will someone answer my question? I do have to admit I was too angry with my last post...sorry. But I would like to know the answers to what all I am asking...and yes...I am sticking with supporting Blu-Ray and am glad this is all happening...anyone?

NO, i believe someone stated that there would need to be terabyte media to support this.

Also greater bandwidth would be needed I think. We'd need something like holographic versatile disc which doesn't need to spin, and can transfer up to 1 gigabit/s.
