 Ritek
and CMC Magnetics, the top two makers of optical discs in Taiwan,
exhibited Blu-ray Disc (BD) and HD-DVD discs at the recent 2006 Consumer
Electronics Show (CES) in the US, with each company planning to start
volume production of the discs next quarter at the earliest, according to
the two companies.
 Ritek
showcased 25GB BD-R (recordable, write once), 15GB HD-DVD-R, 15GB
HD-DVD-RW (rewritable) and 20GB HD-DVD-RAM (also rewritable) discs, all
single-sided single-layer, at CES, company spokesman Eric Ai pointed out.
The production of HD-DVD discs will come earlier than BD discs, Ai
indicated.
