Apparently the HD-DVD has lost the "battle" against the Blu-ray standard. Many of the movie production studios from Hollywood have chosed Blu-ray as an exclusive movie distribution method. The Blu-ray ROM units have been available for a while already on the market and recently even the blu-ray burners have gained popularity due to the increased storage capacity (up to 5 times more than a regular DVD). Philips has launched the SPD7000BD Blu-ray DVD Burner some time ago and it has pleased a lot of customers so far. It supports Blu-ray HD videos reading, but it requires a HDCP video card and monitor. The DVD and CD-ROM access time is the same, 150ms and the cache is 8mb. However it is just one of the first Blu-ray Burner models, and it is not so advanced in its functions yet: the write-speed of a BD-R media is 2X maximum, the ReWrite-speed for BD-RE is 2X maximum and the access time for the entire Blu-ray discs is 350ms. Overall, the price isn't really justified, about $440, unless the customer will buy it and use it intensively within an environment where storing large amounts of data (like more than 10-20GB at once) is done very often.
