Actually, BD can't even manufacture 50GB discs. Due to manufacturing problems (pooling), which I'll bring up as many times as I have to until people get it, they can't even do a full 50GB. They're pretty much maxed out at 45GB--and most Blu-Ray discs are single layer...which are usually maxed at around 22GB for the same reason. But you think they're going to get to 200GB? Insiders claim yields for dual-layer Blu-Ray are still at only 50%! What do you think their yields would be like if they shot for another layer?

You do know there are a ton of movies, majority probably in BD that are dual layer correct? Your info is terribly wrong.
