Most of the current DVD movies are on double-layered single-sided DVD media (9.4 GB). Today, I can only find single-layered 4.7 GB DVD-R media. I cannot use that media to directly copy my DVD movies for back-up purposes.
Why are double-layered single-sided DVD-R media difficult, if not impossible, to locate? Even if I can buy double-layered DVD-R media (9.4 GB), will I be able to burn stuff onto that media using a regular DVD-R burner on market today? Any info is appreciated.
