Guide to High Definition DVD Burners

Video Transcript

TONY RAMIREZ: Hi, my name is Tony Ramirez and this is the high-definition movies and players. High-definition burners, of course, burners have been used for everything from CD copying, DVD copying, whatever you want. Now we have, of course, these high-definition burners, Blu-ray and HD DVD. Currently on the market, we do have a Blu-ray burner. When these first came out, they were around $1000. Now, you can get them on sale with rebates as low as $200 that can go onto you computer. Now, what these burners are used for, of course, is to back up HD content--for instance, if you're shooting on a high-definition camcorder, you can burn Blu-ray compatible DVDs, Blu-ray disc, excuse me, and by, of course, using a Blu-ray burner. This will give you 25 gigs of information that you can either burn HD video content or back up information from your computer. There are no HD DVD burners on the market yet. Toshiba is supposed to be the first one to release them, but they aren't out yet and there's no definitive date. But the HD DVDs will be able to have 15 to 30 gigs on a single disk. The Blu-ray, right now, is 25 gigs, but they're saying it can go up to 50 gigs when they do release the dual layers. We'll see how that goes. So right now, if you do want to burn a high-definition content, whether it's backing up your movies, your own videos or data, the only option is the Sony Blu-ray burner.
