Keep in mind that though this is a blow to the industry, it's not like optical media is just yet dead. Hell, there are still new releases to DVDs coming out today.
Downgrading from blu-ray to dvd is extremely grim.
I guess current codecs can make miracles with 4GB of disk space
If I wanted to watch movies destroyed by compression, I'd go streaming. Blu-ray allows for way less compression. There's a reason Blu-ray remuxes aren't DVD-sized. Heck, some movies don't even fit on a single layer Blu-ray! Do you want to compress that to 4.7 GB? And that's only main title, without extras!
