Blu-ray and HD-DVD
DVD is very successful, and will definitely be around for some time. However as it is implemented, DVD is not a high-definition format. DVD players typically output video in either standard NTSC 480i, with progressive scan DVD players capable of outputting DVD video in 480p. Now, both HD-DVD and Blu-ray players are currently available, with units adding recording capability also available in some PCs and Laptops, to be followed, possibly, by Blu-ray recorders available possibly sometime in the future in the U.S. Market. Blu-ray and HD-DVD both employ Blue Laser technology which has a much shorter wavelength than the red laser technology used in current DVD. Blu-ray and HD-DVD enables a disc the size of a current DVD disc to hold an entire film at HDTV resolution or allow the consumer to record two hours of high definition video content. Blu-ray is supported on the hardware side by Apple, Denon, Hitachi, LG, Panasonic, Pioneer and many others. HD-DVD had been supported on the hardware side by NEC, Onkyo, Samsung and others that are not mentioned yet.
