This "extra space" is pretty much what made the DVD the best "replacement" against the CD in the first place, and stands to be the strong point for Blu Ray discs.
CDs could store up to 700 megabytes of data. DVDs could store up to 4.7 gigabytes, not megabytes, of data, while Blu Ray discs, or BD, could store up to 25 gigabytes of data. The contents of five DVDs could be stored in one Blu Ray disc, easily. This large capacity value also enables, through the combined application of video and audio file codecs, the easy recording of High Definition video formats, which pave the way for an impressive movie watching experience.
