Should we post DVDs as Single- or Dual-Layer?
#1

More and more users have dual-layer drives, and these two set shows generally run more than two hours... which means in order to fit a show onto a single-layer DVD the video needs to be compressed a lot. This results in a loss of video quality.

So, what's the consensus?

If we post them as dual-layer and you don't have a dual-layer drive you'll have to compress it yourself using your burning software (most include some form of Fit-to-DVD compression).

Posting as dual-layer gets the best quality out there but the downloads swell to approximately 8 Gigs per show. 8 Gigs is a big hit on users who have capped monthly allowances. Perhaps this might spell the return of trees and/or B&Ps?

Let's hear your thoughts.
