The double-sided Blu-rays hold 50 gigs and the double-sided HD-DVDs hold 30
gigs. Basically as long as you can fit a full-length movie in HD on either
it is a viable medium.

I can burn double-sided DVDs but perfer to burn to simple DVDs because the
media are much cheaper. So after a certain point it is also about price, and
convenience. Now that NEC has developed the technology to play either in the
same player we will probably have both around until the next tech evolution.
