I'm not really sure what you mean by "the technique" from my understanding its uses the same blue laser format as blu-ray with multiple layers. From what I've seen they are looking at 15-30gigs of sorage per disk. I think its supposed to be 15for rw and 30 for read only i might be wrong on that. It seems to me that blu-ray might be the more promissing of the two however bought have recieved alot of backing.


this article might give you a little more of the info you're looking for
