Sounds ilogical to me....

 1) A 120 minutes movie on a DVD takes less than 4GB, that comes down
    to less than 35MB per minute!
 2) Somewhere I heard the MDCam uses the same compression as DVD Video,
    and no one complaines about that one.
 3) Are you sure its 10 minutes for 2 GBytes and not 10 minutes on 2
    Giga Bits?

DVD based video recorders for the home consumer are starting to be
introduced. I'm sure people will accept that quality!

Cheers,
Ralph
