It for sure is documented somewhere, but I'm to lazy to search for it
right now. In Germany it definitive is like that, in the past you could
see it if you compared the prices of a DDS tapes, with the prices of DAT
tapes. DDS tapes can be used with DAT recorders, but they were much
cheaper.

Btw. I found a thread about DVDs and CDs in German:

The GEMA, a German collecting society mafia get's money for empty DVDs
and CDs, because it's possible to burn music.
