TDK starts with the mass-production of Blu-Ray DVD’s

I’m very exited about this!!!
“Just in case you were curious to see what you’ll have spindles of probably by this time next year, TDK’s officially started production of single and dual-layer single sided BD-Rs and BD-REs (which is just their nomenclature for “BD-RWs”). They’re apparently apt to hyping Durabis, the anti-scratch / smudge / dust coating on Blu-ray discs (even though Durabis is standard for Blu-ray media), but no word on cost per disc. Just don’t be surprised when it’s, um, a lot — you know the price we all pay for being an early adopter. Remember how much CD-Rs used to cost?”
