Somebody mentioned that this program is not so good for data storing e.g. it will be used mainly for Internet transfers. Well, I don't aggree. Seems like compressing a DL DVD to 2 Gb or so savea an awful lot of space, and storing 2 compressed DL DVDs on a single-sided DVD could open the doors to a new era of data storing. If this brilliant piece of software becomes popular enough we'll prolly soon see standalone DVD players able to play .ratDVD files. This might be a boom in the market as well as the possibility for big companies to offer movie download services at a low price. Just compare this to the already flourishing market of online music stores. How about having access to online Movie stores that offer full-featured movies (surround sound, DVD quality, extras, alternate endings, bonuses, subtitles) and all that at an acceptable file size? I simply expect ratDVD to become as popular as DivX, XviD and Winamp. Tha developer of this program must be a genius, may the Force be with him
