Just before CeBIT 2002 closes, we post our second series of articles about optical storage devices. Today we will see what new from: LG, Brainwave(Sanyo), Plextor, BenQ, LiteOn, TDK, Mitsui, Artec and Ricoh. There is also an *exclusive* interview with TMPGEnc author (Page 7) about the past, present and future of the most famous MPEG1/2 software encoder...

There is an interesting article about Sanyo's future DVD-R/CD-RW combo drive (Page 9), which you should read about.

We hope in the next few days finish our CeBIT 2002 coverage with the third ,and last, article. You can view our CeBIT 2002 coverage over here.
