Wired's June issue includes an article which discusses the advantages Blu-ray technology has compared to traditional red-laser. To summarize, Blu-ray increases the recording capacity to 27 Gbytes (13 hours of standard definition TV or two to three hours of HDTV) compared to 4.7 Gbytes recordable with DVD+RW/DVD-RW while still being backward compatible with DVD.
The Blu-ray Disc Founders today announced that they will release the
specification for the next-generation large capacity optical disc video
recording format "Blu-ray Disc" on June 14, 2002 in accordance with their joint
press conference of February 19, 2002. The nine companies (Hitachi, LG
Electronics, Matsushita, Pioneer, Philips, Samsung, Sharp, Sony and Thomson)
will together pursue broad acceptance of the "Blu-ray Disc" format.
