Subject: Recordable DVD's and lack of PVR

I just had a thought...
The New DVD thingy that is going to be coming out in the summer is not going
to be recordable. SO this makes me wonder why the hell anyone would get it?
Aside from that, there is mention that there will re-recordable dvd's in the
future. Anyone know what time frame is considered "the future?"
This sparked an idea...
If there are going to be re-recordable dvd's then there really would be no
reason for having a PVR anymore. The reason is because you could do single
frame recording onto the dvd, right? Each frame of the "movie" would have a
specific address on the dvd, so then you could write each frame to the disk
on one right after the other. Is there any reason why this couldn't be done?
Aside from the special software that would be required and maybe a simpler
controller card than the PVR. Now you have an almost D1 master which you can
spew off tapes from.
I am mentioning this because of the NAB talk, and it does have to do with LW,
