Blu-ray Recorders
With more people choosing to upgrade to Blu-ray and
HDTV, the need for recording in HD using Blu-ray
technology will increase. Blu-ray has been designed
to be very compatible with the worldwide standard for digital broadcasting,
making it easier to record onto Blu-ray discs.
There is an increased amount of data storage required for HD video, and Blu-ray uses a data transfer rate which is adequate to
record and playback digital HD broadcasts while ensuring original picture
quality is always preserved. Also, by using Blu-ray
disc's random accessing features, it is possible to record high-definition
video being broadcast on TV and at the same time, play back pre-recorded video
on a disc
.
Now that the format war is over, Sony is free to focus on additional Blu-ray related products, to provide various extra
functionality and compatibility with other Sony products. Their latest
announcements, namely the BDZ-A70 and BDZ-T90 Blu-ray
recorders, will provide a very interesting feature aimed at other customers of
Sony who own Sony PSP and Walkmans. The two new recorders offer users the
ability to transfer the recorded video content onto their portable devices fast
and easily.
