Sony DADC has announced that they now have six 50 GB Blu-ray Disc production lines up and running.
The company, which announced its 50 GB Blu-ray production plans in May of this year, is currently ramping up production to 60K discs per day. High demand for the 50 GB dual layer Blu-ray Disc is a result of the format's ability to deliver superior, uncompressed audio and high bit-rate video, more value added interactive content, as well as more available space to include additional bonus features such as deleted scenes, interviews and commentary.
Sony DADC also has nine 25 GB Blu-ray Disc production machines in operation and has shipped over three million Blu-ray Discs since beginning production in May. More information can be found here.
