January 29, 2007 – Verbatim announced today that it is one of the first manufacturers to launch HD DVD recordable media to consumers. The Verbatim HD DVD-R has 15 GB of single layer capacity and is available from now.
A new recording dye based on proven AZO-Technology specially designed for HD DVD-R allows Verbatim to achieve optimum data writing quality, minimising the thermal interference between data marks which is a key performance parameter as the data density of HD DVD is over 3.5 times higher than that of standard DVD. Verbatim proved the media’s high read/write compatibility in numerous tests with the latest HD DVD burners and players. Movie fans can immediately enjoy the sharp images high definition technology provides.
Dual Layer HD DVD-R media with a capacity of 30 GB will be available in February. For further information, please visit
