Now EcoDiscs have been included by UK print magazines and guess what, many more MacUsers have become victims of the floppy disk like DVDs.

See the press coverage of  TheRegister , Slashdot, PCpro …

Who expects to have to read warnings on the DVD.  Those warnings are of course smaller than the title and description of the DVD…  Therefore you have a foreseeable number of victims.  And because there are a lot of victims and they often have to travel longer distances to specialists or to send their computer for repair, I would guess that a lot more energy consumption (and emission) has been used to fix those problems then the ecodisc is saving.  Not counting the monetary costs for the victims if they are not succeeding with the DIY methods, such as the one I described in October.
