Summary It's been a long time coming, but DVD is finally here. With so many of the major manufacturers on board-Sony, Philips, Hitachi, IBM, JVC, Matsushita, Mitsubishi, Pioneer, Thomson (RCA), Toshiba-no other storage format has been so widely supported at launch. Industry analysts expect that by 1998 half of all computer drives will be DVD drives. For computer users, the features are compelling: huge storage capacity, convenient size, long shelf-life, and many user-definable features. DVD should become the universal storage medium for the next decade. September 1997 6
