My guess is time. Now that 4x media is in the mix, 1 x media is 
approaching commodity level of acceptance. Best mail order price is 
69¢ in quantity 300. So retail is finally catching up with mail order 
on the blank DVD-R media wagon. Also it is just recently that DVD-R 
recorders are now down to the sub $150 price point. So they are 
becoming much more popular this year than in years past.

Please everyone keep those Sunday morning sale tips coming, I don't get 
the inserts because of a strange geographical anomaly between San Jose 
and Santa Cruz for San Jose Mercury News inserts that arrive at the 
Valley homes but not those in Santa Cruz County.
