You must not have asked your buddies about BD-J disc authoring then, as it is indeed a lot more expensive than DVD authoring. There is no consumer BD-J authoring solution. But I'm glad to hear that money is no object in this case with Yello, and so I look forward to seeing the "Virtual Concert" in glorious HD sometime in the future. Toooo bad there is no mass-market means (yet) to deliver 2K or 4K images to everybody!

Blu-Ray disc authoring is still a lot more expensive than DVD authoring.
Not according to a group of DVD and BluRay authoring companies I made inquiries to. The process is fairly streamlined by now. It is the *possibilities* of things you can do with BR that you cant do with DVD that *may* add time, and thus cost, if you *choose* to add them to the project. But there isnt necessarily anything specific about BR authoring that adds a great expense. Not anymore. Maybe the BR licences are slightly more expensive, but all in all, it isnt cost prohibitive to Yello to make a BR disc. You can even do BR authoring at home these days, with consumer equipment. Even Jon Kamm confirmed that is not a point for Yello anymore.
