Industry Camps Split Over Rewritable DVD Formats TOKYO (Nikkei)-Leading electronics manufacturers are split over standards for rewritable digital video discs for use in computer data storage. Matsushita Electric Industrial Co. (6752) and Hitachi Ltd. (6501) in April began selling DVD-RAM (DVD random-access memory) drives. But computer makers have not jumped on the technology despite its massive storage capacity because six other major electronics firms, led by Sony Corp. (6758), Hewlett-Packard Co. and Philips Electronics NV intend to commercialize a rival format, DVD-rewritable, in the fall. Hewlett-Packard will start selling DVD-rewritable drives provided by Sony on an OEM basis this fall, while Mitsubishi Chemical Corp. (4010) plans to bring on-stream in July a Singapore factory capable of making 200,000 discs a month for supply to Hewlett-Packard. Sony plans its own marketing campaign for drives based on the format later this year. (The Nihon Keizai Shimbun Tuesday morning edition)
