8.5GB DVD drives hit the stores

„These double-layer DVD+R discs can contain about four hours of DVD-quality video or 13 CD-ROMs worth of data, which can be accessed without the need to turn over the disc. Another key advantage of double layer DVD+R is its compatibility with existing DVD Video players and DVD ROM drives. In addition to the PC drive, Philips will be among the first to introduce a double layer, 8.5GB disc.“

„When China's export of DVD players to the U.S. and Europe markets totaled more than 10 million in 2001, a group of different DVD (Digital Video Disc) technology holders fumed, collectively starting a battle to force Chinese manufacturers to pay royalties . As they argued, Chinese manufacturers have been ducking the fee of proprietary technologies and therefore would be able to drive a DVD player's price to as low as $70 at retail. Though the consumers benefit from cheap goods, multinationals like Sony, Philips and AOL Time Warner (who hold patents on DVD format), and laboratories like Dolby Laboratory and MPEG-LA (who hold patents on Dolby Digital Audio and MPEG-2 Video) claim to be the victims.“http://journalism.berkeley.edu/projects/biplog/archive/ 000199.html - Cached - Similar Pages
