 Fujifilm Blu-ray - HD broadcasting
"2006 is the year that the FIFA World Cup will be held in Germany. This is one of the most important events in Europe for driving HD broadcasting. Since late 2005, some TV stations have started HD broadcasting and many end users are now purchasing large display flat panel TV sets to enjoy HD programs. In addition to this, Hollywood will introduce many movies in HD format this year, which is guaranteed to stimulate the demand for HD. However, HD program data is too large to store on today's DVDs and market demand for larger optical discs is getting increasingly stronger." noted Roger Moore, Strategic Business Unit Manager, Recording Media, Fujifilm UK. "Fujifilm is a leading company in the recordable media industry and continues to lead the field in the introduction of new, high quality media formats to support end users. The success of new recording technologies depends on the availability of affordable, reliable media and our engineers are already working to perfect next generation storage solutions, long before they even hit the market."
