*koba* · 02-03-2008

As many of you might know Maxell, TY and Mitsubishi all have announced LTH BD-R some weeks ago. The LTH BD-R is based on an organic dye. This should cut down costs of production for BD-R media.
TY and Mitsubishi BD-R are now available in stores across Japan and YSS already bought some TY and Mitsubishi LTH BD-R discs.
The manufacturer for both brands is TY and the MID is TYG-BD Y01.
The Maxell Discs are not available at the moment.
Since these are made with a organic dye not all BD burners and drives can read them. According to YSS the PS3 for example can not read LTH BD-R discs and LG GGW-H20N is not able to burn but read these. Hopefully this will change with future firmware updates.
