DVD increases the capacity of optical discs from 650 megabytes on CDs to 4-7 gigabytes. By using double tracks on both sides of the disc, it is possible to squeeze as much information on to one disc as on 27 CDs. 1, record 1, English, - double%2Dtrack%20double%2Dsided%20disc

Une autre génération de DVD est également prête à sortir des laboratoires. Leur particularité sera d’avoir deux étages d’informations sur chaque face. Pour passer de l’un à l’autre, on a dû rendre la couche supérieure semi-réfléchissante au rayon laser. Grâce à ce procédé, les capacités de stockage s’envolent. Un DVD double couche double face contiendra autant d’informations que 26 CD (17Go), l’équivalent de plus de 8 heures de film! 1, record 1, French, - DVD%20double%20couche%20double%20face
