Blu-ray disk is a disk which is compatible with current cd+dvd technology. it is the same format but offers greater data capacity, and it's development is currently supported by leading hardware manufactures such as dell and hp as well as blank media manufactures.

cds have a capcity of 650mb and dvds a capacity of up to 8.5gb

blu ray disks were originaly develped for high definition video distrobution. the disks when used for high definition tv recording can store up to 7 hours of hdtv.

the blu ray disk capacity mens that it can be used for hdtv cancorder archiving, data storage and digital asset management. blu ray disk drives will also be able to write to cd or dvd.

the additional capacity on the blu ray disk is created by usig blue laserers and improved lense technology enabling the creation of smaller + higher density pits on the disk. the manufacture of the disks is estimated to cost only 10% more than the manufacture of present dvds.
their spelling is a bit off, but some good info !

Yea, who ever wrote this doesn't know what there talking about. Sounds like a confused consumer after talking to an even more confued salesman or a mis-informed news editor trying to make since of their notes after a press confrence.

If you need info on HD-DVD or Blue-Ray read the Faq page:
