DVD-18s are not really being produced right now. The capability is not there with the number of DVD-Vs that need to be pumped out.

The cost for a dual format disc might be expensive because it will have to include a royalty for each format. Those who are deep into either format are not going to want to pay extra for having the "other" format included.

The cost needs to come down on both as it is.

I am kind of tired of all the old reissues. I want new music.
