Why don't you browse some torrent sites for HD movies? Let's take Serenity for example. The torrent for Serenity in it's uncompressed, 1080p video resolution and
5.1 Dolby Digital audio is 19.6GB.
Now, Serenity is a two hour movie. Return of the King Extended Edition clocks at 4 hours and I believe 20 minutes. That's more than twice the length of Serenity, or 43GB. Add to that Master recording in 7.1 and you got yourself straining for space even on the triple layer HD-DVD. Even if it does fit, there will be some compression.
