So, the next generation of DVDs is already on its way it would seem. Just take a look at the DVD Forum’s approval of the disc specifications for the rewritable version of HD-DVDs. To me, it looks like we will be seeing these puppies in stores sooner than later.
The DVD Forum has approved the physical disc specifications for the rewritable version of HD-DVDs (High Definition/High Density-DVDs), taking the format an important step nearer to mass production. At a meeting in Taiwan on September 22, the association approved version 1.0 of the HD-DVD-RW physical specification, which covers a single-layer disc with a capacity of 20GB, Junko Furuta, a Toshiba spokesperson says. Version 1.0 is the key specification that allows manufacturers to consider mass production of a product involving new technologies.
