JVC Develops Dual Format DVD/Blu-ray Disc
>> From TeamXbox.com:
[QUOTE]
JVC announced that it has developed the world’s first Blu-ray/DVD combo ROM disc technology, which enables storage of video content in both high definition and standard definition. The new ROM disc, which has a total storage capacity of 33.5GB, uses a triple layer structure made possible by JVC’s development of a proprietary, high-performance reflective film.
The development of the Blu-ray/DVD combo ROM disc opens the way for the emergence of video releases containing content in both Blu-ray and DVD formats on a single disc. Users can purchase a single disc that can be reproduced at high definition BD video quality on a large screen home theater system, or play back the disc at standard definition DVD video quality on a smaller TV set, a home PC or laptop computer. Users that do not have a Blu-ray disc player can view the video content at standard definition using their current DVD player, and enjoy the same content at high definition resolution when upgrading to a Blu-ray disc player in the future.

Blu-ray Disc and HD-DVD are the two competiting next generation high definition DVD formats - it's unknown yet which one Microsoft will support in the Xbox2 (if any).
