i'm signed up to apple software seeding program for leopard. the disk image file currently online exceeds 4.7Gbytes, so it does not fit normal DVD-R. any workarounds/helps are appreciated. thanks.

I'm answering to spare the list needless discussion and repeats of this and similar questions. This information is not specific to Leopard seeds, about which I have no specific comment or information DVD+R DL is necessary for 4.71-9.4 GB images. This media size is necessary for more than 120 minutes of DVD video, too -- with the new disc capacity being 240 minutes. These are burnable in the latest Mac-included SuperDrives, but not in all older ones. (I do not have any information on which models started including the newer drives, but it was not later than the Intel-based iMacs.) You can check whether your Mac can burn the DL (dual layer) DVD+R by reviewing the System Profiler output for burning capabilities, in either GUI or command-line tools. Note that you need specific DL media as well as the new burner. DL images cannot be split across two single-layer discs.
