[X-Newbies] Blu-ray[2]

[Verduron]

Blu-ray, also known as Blu-ray Disc (BD) is the name of a next- 
generation optical disc format jointly developed by the Blu-ray Disc  
Association (BDA), a group of leading consumer electronics and PC  
companies (including Apple, Dell, Hitachi, HP, JVC, LG, Mitsubishi,  
Panasonic, Pioneer, Philips, Samsung, Sharp, Sony, TDK and Thomson).  
The format was developed to enable recording, rewriting and playback  
of high-definition video (HD), as well as storing large amounts of  
data. A single-layer Blu-ray Disc can hold 25GB, which can be used to  
record over 2 hours of HDTV or more than 13 hours of standard- 
definition TV. There are also dual-layer versions of the discs that  
can hold 50GB.

Apple's name is here.
