    Imagine a Blu-Ray laserdisc. Anyone want to do the math and see how much a double layer Blu laser disc would hold? I think it would be interesting to know myself.

    It wouldn't be a laserdisc. The format of those was analog and they were hard pressed to get an hour per side. I think if you went with a digital format you would still need wider track spacing due to the larger eccentricity of the big disc. Sorry, I am getting all geeky, so I'll stop now.

    I think he just meant a bluray the size of a laserdisc.

    He knew that and that is what he responded to in the third sentence of his previous post.
    THERE= a place. not here - THEIR= belongs to them - THEY'RE = short for "They Are". THEN = a point in time; not now. - THAN = used to compare things.

    If something is LOOSE you might LOSE it. Your=belongs to "you" You're short for "you are"

    oh my... It was just a hypothetical question. If you would take the size and spacing of a blu-ray "line" and continue it over the circumference of an old laser disc how much longer would it be... that's all, not a discussion on why you wouldn't or couldn't do it.. geez...
