According to Tom's Hardware, a way to store 42 GB of data on one disc was developed by a Japanese team. When DVDs first came onto the scene, able to store roughly six times the amount of data that a CD could, it seemed like an impressive discovery. CDs and DVDs both have pits on the surface of the disc. The pits on DVDs are smaller and aside from that, the space between the pits, the track-spacing, is a lot tighter. DVDs can also have up to 4 layers of information.    (source: tomshardware.com)
