  In DVD war, Sony takes sides--both
Time: 07:29 EST/12:29 GMT | News Source: CNET | Posted By: Robert Stein

Hoping to ease consumer concerns over a confusing DVD standards battle, Sony said Monday it will support the two leading formats in a new line of drives. DVD recording is gradually catching on with consumers, but confusion over the two leading formats, DVD+RW and DVD-RW, has hampered sales. Analysts say potential buyers don't want to buy an expensive device--often costing upwards of $500--that could soon become a market also-ran. Sony's solution is simple: the consumer electronics giant will sell an internal and an external PC drive that reads and writes to DVD+RW/+R and DVD-RW/-R discs.
