We are also getting way off track here.
The original poster brought up a valid question to which I am sure many of our members were interested in the wide variety of opinions given.
The original question was to the effect that if a 1 hour DV (avi) file occupies 13GB of hard drive space but is then compressed to MPEG2 format so that it would fit a 4.3 GB DVD disc.
With the emergence of new technology whether that be Blue Ray or HD, with the larger capacity available on those discs and so no longer the need to reduce the file size so dramatically, would better quality be achieved by not having to compress the file size so much.
The type of burners available, or the use of Hard Drives rather than discs are side issues to that valid question.
Here I favour the experience of members who have the necessary equipment and were able to enlighten the forum with the results of their findings
Some valid replies include:

Lets stick to the subject and not start arguing about the problems associated with editing video (in general) the best software to use to burn an ISO and whether posts are being correctly moderated or not.jchunter wrote:.....If you transcode standard definition video into high definition you will not see any more detail than was on the original tape. You need to buy a hi def camcorder. .....
