What Makes Blu-Ray the best
The format offers more than five times the storage capacity of traditional DVDs. A single-layer disc can hold 25GB, while a dual-layer disc can hold 50GB of data.
Over 9 hours of high-definition (HD) video can be stored on a 50GB disc, and around 23 hours of standard-definition (SD) video can be fit on a 50GB disc. The Blu-ray disc shows high-definition movies up to full HD 1080p resolution, while a DVD shows standard-definition movies up to 480p resolution.
BD vs DVD
The usage of a blue instead of a red laser and improved lens specifications, allowing for a much smaller focus laser beam which enables the recording of much smaller and higher density pits on the disc and thus significantly increased data capacity.
Comparison of laser beam wavelengths,
NA and cover layer thicknesses
Due to the fact that the data layer on a Blu-ray Disc is placed much "closer" to the laser lens than in DVD, there is less distortion resulting in significantly improved tolerances. Hence, more precision and ultra high storage densities are made possible.
As a result of Blu-ray Disc being manufactured as a single substrate disc comparable to CD, but unlike DVD, the manufacturing process does not involve the bonding of two substrates, resulting in less production material.
Low-to-High
BD-R LTH is a write-once Blu-ray disc format that features an organic dye recording layer. "Low to High" refers to the reflectivity changing from low to high during the burning process, which is the opposite of normal.
Phase-change HTL media uses inorganic alloy or composite material for creating high quality Blu-ray discs. An inorganic recording layer means
high resistance to the effects of UV light and aging, as well as
high compatibility with multiple Blu-ray burners and Blu-ray players.
All together this allows HTL BD-R discs to have a tremendously long shelf life with high compatibility across hardware, key factors in a medium that holds your data. HTL refers to the discs reflectivity during recording, changing the material from high reflectivity to low reflectivity. The process for creating phase-change discs is unique; the result is a high quality high density disc that you can trust to hold your data for decades.
LTH media is an organic dye-pigment disc that found its way into the market to offer a lower cost alternative disc in Blu-ray's infant years. LTH refers to changing the organic dye from low reflectivity to high reflectivity. Unfortunately, since this was introduced after Blu-ray entered the market, the compatibility of these types of discs is lower. Initially, this brought a lower cost disc to market. However, over time problems using organic dye-pigment for long term data storage became apparent. The organic dye has a high sensitivity to light and lower compatibility in the market, resulting in
shorter lifespan of your data on the disc, and possible issues burning or reading the data on these discs.
River media printable surfaces
Recording performance has been heavily optimised and improved over
the years, as has the printable surfaces. River Media printable
disc surfaces feature:
