Talk:Optical disc
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Is this article a stub?
Optical disc can be loaded with tray or slot-in thingymabob.
In my Computer Information Systems class we were told that there are two types of optical disks, the CD and the DVD. Now I'm reading this article and I'm like what the hell? Not that I trust my class over wikipedia. Obviously. Erik E. 02:20, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
- Well, I think the article is a reasonably good and yet concise representation of the current situation. CD and DVD are by far the most common, being the most versatile, but Blu-Ray and HD-DVD are coming up fast, and MiniDisc, while on the way out, is still viable for personal recording. Much of the bestiary you see is variations on a theme, while a lot of it is either vaporware or experimental, or just plain never worked out (DataPlay, anyone?).
