Wow, that's so.....ummmm...90s. Did I read that right? They want to glue a single layer DVD to the back of an HD DVD, so depending which way you stick it in your machine you get the normal or super duper HD version? Reminds me of double sided single layer DVD and VCD all those years ago.
Now if they stuck a DVD layer in front of the HD DVD layers so that normal players just say the old format, but your HD DVD player saw thru the old format to the new one *then* I'd be impressed.
