They're talking about 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray, which was introduced in 2016. The video is still compressed, but it's still much higher quality than DVD and Blu-ray, and can hold 60-100 GB of data.
But they wrote "DVD". I'm just nitpicking.
Ah, gotcha. It's annoying when people use "DVD" as a catch-all term for all optical media.
It is 😅 Words have meaning!
Exactly. I can't play Bluray disks in my DVD player. That's a pretty important distinction.
