subtitle selection, slideshow and other features.
BD-ROM Discs can store 25 GB (single layer) or 50 GB (dual layer) on a single
sided disc - about 5 to 10 times the capacity of a DVD. BD-ROM Discs also
support the highest quality HD video available in the industry (up to 1920 x
1080) - large capacity means no compromise on video quality. Furthermore,
a BD-ROM disc has the same familiar size and look as DVD.
