DigiTimes has reported that support for LabelFlash is slowly growing and could give LightScribe some serious competition in 2007.
Pioneer Electronics recently in Japan launched its DVR-A12J, a 18x DVD Dual burner featuring LabelFlash direct disc labeling technology, a move that signals that the technology is catching up in terms of adoption with the competing LightScribe format and that competition between the two formats will heat up in 2007, according to industry sources in Taiwan.
LabelFlash, developed by Fujifilm and Yamaha Corporation, and LightScribe, developed by Hewlett-Packard (HP), allows users to directly burn a label onto specially coated DVD discs.
Hopefully, LabelFlash will finally make its way to the US in 2007. If you'd like to read more, head on over to DigiTimes.
