More Cebit good news: Disc prices to drop sharply in the near future

Prices for blank Blu-ray discs are set to fall sharply as cheaper manufacturing methods take over, a maker of disc drives forecast at the CeBIT trade show in Germany.

The long battle over the standard to succeed the DVD was won last month by the Blu-ray camp, with Toshiba conceding there was no future for its HD DVD technology.

Thomas Nedder, chief executive of Sony NEC Optiarc Europe, a joint venture company that makes Blu-ray drives, told Deutsche Presse- Agentur dpa that a price of just 5 euros apiece for blanks was realistic in the near future.
