Which DVD format will win? | |
|
||
| Time: 00:01 EST/05:01 GMT | News Source: ZDNet | Posted By: Matthew Sabean | ||

The two groups striving to make their respective formats the standard for rewritable DVDs used this week's Consumer Electronics Show as an opportunity to demonstrate their progress. At separate, simultaneous events at CES here, the Recordable DVD Council and the DVD+RW Alliance brought together partners to discuss their efforts so far. As the DVD rewritable market heats up, a lot is riding on which format, if any, becomes dominant. "The price of drives is coming down after a big drop in 2001, so they're finally getting down to prices consumers are comfortable with," said Jon Peddie, CEO of Jon Peddie Research. | ||

DVD-R/RW is pretty well entrenched right now, and it works FINE.
Not to mention one of the most coveted burners on the market, the Pioneer DVR-103/DVR-A03 uses this format, as does the recently releasd 104/A04 versions. I HATE these wars. Consumers always take it in the shorts. We have a perfectly fine, established, working standard (DVD-R/RW), but nooooooo. The old "mine, mine, MINE!" crap has to kick in and other manufacturers just have to screw things up. Honestly, I'm suprised DVD ever shipped. It almost didn't! TL |
