Jimby:Let's take Diana Krall's The Girl in the Other Room>, which has a running time of 55:33.
Using Meridian's MLP project calculator, I come up with 4GB for audio content assuming 24/96K Six-Channel and dedicated 24/96K Stereo tracks. Including the bare minimum for backwards compatibility for DVD-Video, a DD track (5.1 @ 448 kbits/second) still gives us about 500MB for video extras. Adding a DTS track does put you over the top, but IMO it's pointless to include both.
So either there are more than 500Mbytes of video extras, or you're encoding with DD and DTS. Why not a little less on the video side (I notice now there are 3 videos included) for a better sonic experience?
