Beware of the advice of format zealots - unaffiliated 07:59:18 02/19/05 (35)

beware the DualDisc if you value your equipment at all! Stick with traditional DVD-Audio. (nt) - Teresa 18:34:20 02/19/05 (3)

standard disc thickness 1.2 (+) 25% 0.3 (=) 1.5. The measured thickness of DualDiscs is 1.5 - 1.6 - Teresa 15:22:57 02/21/05 (16)

when somebody says there is one gallon too much water - tunenut 16:39:18 02/22/05 (15)

don't understand? What does this have to do with DualDisc being 0.3 - 0.4 mm too thick. - Teresa 17:49:12 02/22/05 (14)

when you say that something is 25% too thick - tunenut 18:21:03 02/22/05 (13)

so if all DVDs (including) 2 sided dual layer DVDs are 1.2 mm, you don't consider 1.5 mm 25% too thick? - Teresa 02:13:55 02/23/05 (12)

obviously I knew you would argue - tunenut 08:47:48 02/23/05 (6)

Yes, Christine says even dual layer 2 sided DVDs are 1.2mm - Teresa 23:20:11 02/24/05 (5)

They aren't... - Frank.. 06:12:10 02/25/05 (4)

Thanks Frank I will avoid renting T2, are there any other DVD-Video's I should avoid? - Teresa 10:05:39 02/25/05 (2)

You should avoid any sci-fi movies on DVD Video. - Frank.. 12:51:08 02/25/05 (1)

I wouldn't be so sure. Special video effects will not hurt my DVD-Audio player but defective DualDisc will. - Teresa 00:03:43 02/26/05 (0)

If you start with the ABSOLUTE maximum thickness allowed that leaves no room for variation - Teresa 22:46:39 02/24/05 (3)

Absolute nonsense - racerguy 09:28:27 02/25/05 (0)

Normal thickness is 1.2, 25% of 1.2 is 0.3. 1.2 (+) 0.3 (=) 1.5 and DualDiscs are 1.5 or thicker. Simple math. (nt) - Teresa 16:03:06 02/20/05 (0)
