The main feature of the Blu-ray disc that separates it from a normal DVD is its storage capacity. The Blu-ray disc has five times more storage capacity than DVDs. It can hold 25GB in a single layer disc and 50 GB on a dual layer disc. A Dual Layer Disc can have over 9 hours of high-definition (HD) video on a 25GB disc and over 22 hours of standard-definition (SD) video can be had on a 50GB disc. The Blu-ray disc also offers other great features, chief among these being a new dimension of interactivity which allows you to connect to the internet and download a wide variety of content.
