double/dual layer DVDs are 2x the capacity of single layer DVDs( 4.7GB ). But,
your DVD writer must have/support the double/dual layer capabilities. A good
reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DVD#DVD_disc_capacity

looks like there are even double sided DVDs too. How about that, 17.1GB for
double/dual layer double sided. whoa.
