Blu-Ray Optical Disks To Be Made From Corn

Sunday November 7, 2004
Leave to the Japanese to come with an unusual, but practical solution, to high-tech problems. It seems that Pioneer Electronics has discovered that discs for the forthcoming Blu-Ray high-definition DVD format can be made out of a cornstarch derivative. Not only does this make the new disc format environmentally friendly, but if you don't like your Blu-Ray movie, it may make a great tostada; just add some beans, cheese, and salsa. It sounds like we are in store from tasty home entertainment! For additional details, check out the report from The Inquirer.
