The Dual Layer product offers customers twice the storage capacity of an ordinary DVD on the same standard size disc. Up to 8.5GB of data can be stored on Dual Layer discs by putting a second physical layer on a disc. Drives with dual layer capability access the second layer by shining the laser through the first layer, which is semi-transparent. The product is ideal for individuals and institutions with high storage needs.

LightScribe is a direct graphic printing and labeling technology that enables customers to create their own disc labels using the optical disc writer. The labels thus created are longer lasting and do not fade from exposure to indoor lighting. The technology offers a convenient and low-cost method to create professional labeling solutions. The product is ideal for professional users in creative arts and photography and also professionals engaged in regular data exchange.

Bhaskar Sharma, CEO, Blank Optical Media and Consumer Products businesses, Moser Baer, said: “We have been one of the two top global suppliers of the Dual Layer and LightScribe formats in the international market. I am delighted to be introducing these two products in the Indian market. Moser Baer has been constantly pioneering and innovating in the optical storage media space and these new products further reinforce our leadership position in this space.”

Moser Baer’s LightScribe DVDs are available in 10-pack cake boxes at an MRP of Rs. 430, while the CD counterpart is available in 10-pack slim cases for Rs. 400. and 10-pack cake boxes for Rs. 250.
