Those numbers are correct (as I have seen them MANY times before) but DO NOT factor in the poor YIELDS of the format. If you count the poor yields, your COST per disk is way UP. Naturally studios do not discuss this but I know someone who "builds and runs" duplication facility. This is how I found out about the cost. DON'T ever assume I make something (not even cool).. Remember, I WORK in STORAGE...
