here is my take (though I should crack the book open):
Since updates are sent only to routers on the same
sire (segment) then it would be true that a DR (and
BDR for that matter) is specified per eth segment.
You may want to look through the explanations for ABR,
ASBR and DR to clear the picture for yourself.
