“The completion of these specifications is an important step in establishing Blu-ray Disc as the premiere next-generation optical disc format and provides manufacturers with the information they need to launch products beginning this Spring,”
said Victor Matsuda, Global Chairman of the Blu-ray Disc Association Promotions Committee.
The specifications for the single layer (25 GB) and dual layer (50 GB) Blu-ray discs were approved by the BDA on January 2, 2006.
Companies interested in licensing Blu-ray disc technology or manufacturing Blu-ray disc products have now been invited to contact the BDA to obtain and agree to license terms and conditions.
Blu-ray disc products are expected to appear in retail outlets in the next few months.
