DVD recorders likely to top VCRs in shipments

Demand for DVD recorders is growing rapidly in Japan, with shipments likely to surpass those of VCRs this fiscal year, according to industry data made available Thursday. Domestic shipments of DVD recorders in the April-June quarter soared more than eight times in value from a year earlier to around 12.2 billion yen, compared with about 17.9 billion yen for those of VCRs.
