Why are they so expensive?

40 bucks for 3 in Canada

WTF!

Because it's like any new technology... low demand, and they're perfecting the process.

The amount of broken eggs in recordable dual-layer DVD discs is quite high, driving the cost of the good eggs up.

How new are they?

They started at $18 during summer and are down to $6. I've been told Oct 05 is when I can expect them to have fair price but I wonder if it will be too late with new format coming?
