lo everyone, just wondered if anyone had seen a dvd DL rw before. i was thinking of buying some but a quick search on froogle suggests it doesnt exist and i wondered if any of u lot knew better ?

Google (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=dual+layer+dvd+burner&btnG=Google+Search)
shows a bunch!

Dual-layer burners exist alright but I'm not sure that DVD+RW (or DVD-RW for that matter) media supports dual-layer technology. Haven't been able to find a definitive answer but perhaps the layer of dye can't be used in this way (yet). Someone around may know for sure but do let us know if you can find a source.

You could look for any such references at http://www.dvdplusrw.org/Default.asp or maybe scout around http://club.cdfreaks.com/forumdisplay.php?f=103

To use the DVD-DL you need to buy the Mdea for it

The drivers are easy and cheap
The disks however are $$

DVD-RW has a capacity of 4.7Gig
The DVD-DL has a capacity of 8.5Gig
