possibly, but even with several layers the disc capacity would still be much less than 1-2 layers of the new HD or BR and not worth the cost

hd-dvd uses the same format as standerd dvd, thats why its aculy a bit better then blueray. why it uses the same format being cheaer to make and all players can still read standerd dvd. and yes if they can do a triple layer or 10 layer hd-dvd they can do the same for standerd. it would give a standerd dvd 47 gigs of space. yea its not 250 but it would be more then enough to hold a hd movie or game. and joe sixpack wouldent even need to worry abought buying a new player it would aruldy work it would still be mpeg-2 just with less compression.
