Move Over DVD, Here Comes the EVD Reuters Page 1 of 1 02:15 PM Nov. 18, 2003 PT BEIJING -- China, the world's biggest maker of DVD (Digital Versatile Disc) players, moved on Tuesday to create its next-generation rival -- the EVD -- the first step toward creating a possible new national industry standard. Beijing E-world Technology, the corporate entity of a government-backed consortium of businessmen and academics, and two DVD manufacturers unveiled the indigenous, higher-definition Enhanced Versatile Disc. "It's not a question of whether we walk the EVD path. It's a question of how fast or slow we go," Hao Chieh, president of E-world Technology, which designed the new standard, told Reuters. But analysts doubt that EVDs would be widely adopted in the rest of the world even if China were to adopt it. wired.com
