Yeah, it applies. All new DVDs now are "dual layer" so they can fit twice the amount of data (like 9GB) instead of the original DVDs that were only 4.7GB. If a disc is two sided, each side is 4.7GB I think. So it is still obviously good quality, but it would be better if it was just one format of the movie on one side, using up all 9 GB. It is not really that noticeable though, I agree. A lot of time, to save space, they won't put certain types of audio streams and shit.
