They aren't new style at all as the dual layered disc format was a part of the DVD specs from the start, and any DVD drive with the DVD logo should be able to easily read them. If the drive can't read them then it is faulty, either through not being compliant with the DVD spec, or because the hardware is broken. While the multi-layered format may have been part of the DVD spec from the start, many older DVD readers could not read the multi-layered DVD. Neither my laptop nor my wife's desktop systems can read it, and I have encountered a number of other older systems that were unable to read it. -- Jerry Feldman <gaf@blu.org> Boston Linux and Unix user group http://www.blu.org PGP key id:C5061EA9 PGP Key fingerprint:053C 73EC 3AC1 5C44 3E14 9245 FB00 3ED5 C506 1EA9
