Computer Media and their players
Posted on 23. Jan, 2009 by Simon Whiston in General News
when C.D media became available to the consumer the advance in technology was a massive break through. Users of the media had increased storage space, light weight design and were fully durable. DVD Duplication of data stored from other media started to become popular, with most household desktops using burning software with a compatible C.D/ DVD re-writer.
Making back-ups of your old disks was very popular but with massive consequence to the retailer. MP3 and Video media was ripped from their original sources and then became available across many peer to peer download clients across the internet.
To counter-act this issue a lot of manufacturers adopted an anti piracy campaign to basically stop optical media devices running copied (burnt) based media. This involved using a specific laser so only legitimate C.D/ DVD media could be read.
Until recently media player devices such as dvd/ blu ray players did not allow any duplicated optical media to be read from retail players. Players also did not allow other region DVD media to be played.
With increasing internet speeds and media being available across the internet, manufacturers needed to allow writeable media to be read by their machines, this gave current players a broader specification and made players more appealing to the consumer. Media players now even play non DVD media such as Divx a well known format across the internet for good quality low memory usage video, this required more processing power but to-days machines can incorporate en-coding/ de-coding extensions within processor architecture.
