A single-layer disc can hold 25GB.
A dual-layer disc can hold 50GB.

To ensure that the Blu-ray Disc format is easily extendable (future-proof) it also includes support for multi-layer discs, which should allow the storage capacity to be increased to 100GB-200GB (25GB per layer) in the future simply by adding more layers to the discs.

well lets just say that you will be able to fit large hard drives worth of information on these little discs....not to mention movies and such.

Needless to say I can't wait for this technology to be affordable and accessable by the general public.

If it is affordable now will someone let me know thanks!!!

It's not affordable now, and hopefully never will be. Blu-Ray is looking to be the new betamax.

I'm not sure I understand what you are trying to say. I take it you don't like bluray but the last sentence I didn't get. What is a betamax?
