So technically speaking, this MIGHT be feasible, but marketeers won't let that happen.

@seaneyb2003: Probably we will see dual-layer DVD±R/RW during Q2. BenQ has announced their DW830A model, hitting the stores in April. Also Sony has announced DRU700A, with a vague release time on Q2.

Hmmm... Well, ok. doom9 r well respected so will eat my own words.....for now. This has been discussed before and ruled out as a possibility as dvd burners burning dual layer is tough enough to concept, dvd burners doing it with a simple firmware upgrade?? Well, what do i know!!!

As for new disc format. Definitely a goer. 10GB on a single layer so 20GB on a dual. Would have to be a ps3 thing though.

Regards an thanx for an interesting thread (not the usual "i cant get this game to back-up)
