That might be, I'd imagine it could be since the technology is newer.

But what about DVDRW and DVD ram!  I hear that DVD ram can be used many 
more times over than DVDRW's!

No, not all dvd players support duel layer discs. I did, however, find 
out some useful info:
Dvd +r's are better than dvd -r. I'll try and dig up the article 
somewhere.
I'd guess single layer would deteriate less since they'd have less of a 
chance of messing up when burning. Also, double layer cost nearly twice 
as much as single - so if storage is the answer, it sure would save 
space - and cost about the same as 2 of the same single layer discs.

I have been using 4-gig DVDs for backups of audio files.
But lately I have begun to wonder if the double layer DVDs
might be just about as economical.  Additionally, can anyone
point me to any articles comparing the long term reliability
of single layer versus double layer DVDs?

Thanks.

Re: A DVD cost comparison question

The double layered ones are twice as expensive and also you need to make
sure your burner can do that. Now all burners won't do double density so
this is really important to check. If your manual says double you will be
good to go but they are expensive so plan on that.
