Verbatim's DVD-R was designed to meet the needs of users who demand a higher capacity. Therefore it is designed primarily for businesses and consumers for data archiving and one-time video recording. Professionals working with large image files, for example, will immediately discover advantages such as the ability to have an entire picture library on one disc, while sharing large multimedia files will no longer be a problem. Home-users will be able to edit, organize, share and preserve their memories on one disc in the form of photos, video clips and music.
Verbatim DVD-R products are based on a proprietary Metal AZO recording dye, a technology first pioneered in DataLifePlus "blue" CD-R media. Metal AZO is an exceptionally strong material that provides the highest level of recording stability and archival life. In addition, Metal AZO technology maintains the best recording compatibility with the shorter laser wavelengths and higher laser power needed to write DVD media at high speeds.
