Verbatim sent out a press release this morning, announcing that they've started volume shipments of their new Color-background LightScribe CD-R media.
Verbatim Corporation, the industry leader in offering the widest range of premium-quality LightScribe media, announced today volume shipments of the first Color-background LightScribe CD-R media to the US market. Production of the new media, which began shipping to the US in November, was ramped up to make it more widely available in time for the holidays. Sold in 25-packs, each package includes five vibrantly colored red, green, blue, yellow and orange discs that make ideal holiday gifts. Verbatim will also be showing the new LightScribe media at its CES Booth in the South Hall #4/36249 in Las Vegas, January 8-11.
We've already had reports of these discs showing up at Best Buy stores. The way it sounds, they should be showing up at other retailers soon. If you'd like to read more, Verbatim's entire press release can be found here.
