Ahh....
Than I must have been wrong.... I always thoughed MD used MO technology and
that CD-RW used some sort of other technology that doesn't require a
magnetic field during writing.....
Seriously, you can't compare MDs with CD-RWs since the underlying technology
is completly different. MD-Data2 is a 'high-density' MD-Data disc. It's an
evolution. DVD is however a evolution of CD (make CD double-sided, double
layered and increase the density). I suppose that DVD-RAM is based on the
same principles as CD-RW.
