A blu-ray isn't a digital video disc.  It's a data disc that can
contain 25/50GB of data.  DVD is a data disc that can contain 4/8GB of
data.

Just because both commonly are used to hold movies doesn't make either
a digital video disc.  Sorry!

DVD is trademarked, and it doesn't mean digital video disc.
