Pioneer showcases 16-layer 400GB optical disc
Pioneer is exhibiting its super multi-layer read-only optical disc which features 16 separate layers on a single side with 25GB storage capacity on each layer for a total capacity of 400GB at the IT Month fair taking place in Taipei.

The technology of the super multi-layer read-only disc is based on Blu-ray Disc (BD) with a breakthrough in material of reflective layers, according to Pioneer High Fidelity Taiwan. The specifications of the pick-up head (PUH) of the disc is the same as those for the PUH of blank BD discs, and therefore the Pioneer discs can be read on BD players, the company said.

According to Pioneer's internal roadmap, its super multi-layer technology development is read-only (ROM) discs in 2008-2010, rewritable discs in 2010-2012 and 1TB (1,000GB) disc in 2013, the company indicated.

1TB Discs!!! who says blu-ray will die out? lol

think of how much more graphics and details the games could have.
but you're going to need a workhorse of a system to retrieve and render that stuff onto your screen.
also less compression is always a good thing.

^^ ya what soggy said.

but when resolutions start upping to 1440 and 1920 and beyond for movies. i would imagine it would be pretty easy to fill up data, even 1TB worth.

for gamage filling up an entire DL blu-ray now is impressive.
