It is the logical place to start. It's *a* logical place to start. I can also understand Klaus' logic which appears to be that DVD-10 is newer/better than DVD-1. If you don't know the concept of software having to span multiple media (and with the internet, it's possible one might not have come across that), then you might use the idea of "Service Packs" or "Updates" instead: DVD-1 existed, but was superceded by DVD-2 and so on. Perhaps naming them "DVD-1-of-10" might be more explicit?
