Are You Sure No More 4-Disk Sets?
really excellent info on various high def dvd technologies here:

http://www.digital-digest.com/highdefdvd/faq.html#faq203

including the following:

"The reason for the dramatic capacity increase over DVD is obvious when you consider that a HD transmission will take up a lot more room than a typical DVD stream ... However, in an interview with a Microsoft representative, it was suggested that BD's 50GB discs may not be ready yet for mass production. ... This could also lead to potential problems with early movie releases, as Sony has indicated that MPEG-2 compression is their preferred video compression format. A typical HD quality MPEG-2 compressed video would require more space than what a single layer 25 GB BD can offer."
