Oct 24th 2005 10:06AM Maybe the discs are so expensive because they have deviated from the standard size. Perhaps it is just an illusion in the picture but it looks to me that the yellow disc is not the same size as a standard disc, which means that you can not modify the current manufacturing equipment to create the same discs. This is surely going to create a more expensive disc then anything else.
