LG Super Multi Blue: The War Between Blu-ray and HD-DVD Continues

by Khalid Hosein on January 13, 2007

The guys from Techlore just got back from CES, and one of the cool things they saw was LG’s new “Super Multi Blue” drive. It reads HD-DVD’s and reads and writes Blu-Ray discs. No HD-DVD write action yet.

Either way, it’s slow (4x) and expensive ($1200), but it’s out … soon. The good news is that the connections are there – HDMI, component and composite for video, and optical, coaxial, and discrete 5.1 for audio. And the even better news… 50GB disc storage capacity for either format. That’s about 9 hrs of 1080i and 23 hrs of standard def. Rock on! Beats the daylights out of the 2 episodes of Battlestar Galactica that can fit now on current DVDs.
