Sony beams in blue laser discs

Published by

Sony debuted on Monday optical storage discs that use blue-laser technology to hold more data and that offer improved durability.

The Sony Professional Disc for Data, which targets the business market worldwide, uses blue laser technology as opposed to the traditional red-laser system. The new product is similar to the consumer-oriented Blu-ray storage discs, which Sony has been piloting in Japan.
