RDM has developed a high-definition system that exceeds the capabilities of Blu-ray. RDM’s technology offers storage capacity for up to 100 GB on a single disc. Blu-ray discs can only hold 50 GB of data. Due to RDM’s increase in storage capacity, their system is able to offer display qualities that greatly exceed conventional, 1080p, high-definition.“RDM’s format will transform perceptions of high-definition,” said Diebel. “RDM’s system is able to display the next generation of high-definition: 1920p. With this advancement in technology, true digital cinema will soon be a widespread reality.”

For consumers, RDM’s increase in storage capacity allows for a single disc to hold approximately four hours of video content at 1920p resolution.Because RDM’s system is based on inexpensive red laser technology, their players are expected to sell for much less than Sony’s, which routinely sell for hundreds of dollars. The high price of Blu-ray players has been credited for the technology’s slow public reception.The retail prices for RDM’s players and discs are expected to “equal those of the traditional DVD format, greatly undercutting Blu-ray,” said Diebel.
