Well Mitsubishi/Verbatim announced to outsource BD-R production to other manufacturers. Maxell is also outsourcing their production and are shutting down their own factories in JP. Also with LTH being introduced right now the production cost should drop because these discs can be made by just modifying current DVD equipment.
