New Blu-Ray mastering costs news from JVC ?

From Beyond3D's forums:

JVC's newly developed Extended Deep Ultraviolet Mastering System uses a deep ultraviolet laser beam to manufacture BD-ROM masters with just a small modification to a conventional DVD master recording system which uses blue violet to ultraviolet rays. For this reason it produces BD-ROM master discs for the same cost as DVD master discs.

That was my main reason for supporting HD-DVD... better cost for consumer. Now, I don't much care. They addressed the cost issue and backwards compatability.
