DVD9: This refers to the DVD format and region. DVD9 is a dual-layer DVD that can store up to 8.5 GB of data, as opposed to the single-layer DVD5 which can store up to 4.7 GB. This is relevant because it indicates the capacity and potentially the video quality of the DVD release.
Note: Be wary of "2 Disc" versions or "Reprints." The original DVD9 version holds the entire film on one disc (side A). The single disc is heavier than a standard DVD due to the bonding of the two layers.
