This is due to the classic difference between GB and GiB, KB and KiB. Humans think 1KB = 1000 bytes while computers think 1 KB =1024 bytes (2 to the 10th power). To be more accurate (and avoid this confusion) 1024 bytes should be referred to as 1 KiB (kibibyte). A DVD can hold approximately 4.7 GigaBytes (GB) but only 4.37 GibiBytes.
