Sony makes the only CD burner that I know of that can burn these discs. I do not recommend this format to anyone. No DVD player that I know of will play these discs and Sony made the 1.3GB discs so that they can't be used for CD audio, so they're pretty useless in my opinion. You can play them on a PC with if your PC can burn them and that's the only place I know of where you can watch them. For those of you who have no idea what we're talking about, do a web search on "double density CD-R" or "1.3GB CD-R". This is a pointless format that Sony has invented with double the capacity of 74 minute CD-Rs, but the discs are totally incompatible with existing CD-R technology. Might as go to burnable DVD if you need this kind of storage, in my opinion. This is likely to be a dead format in another year or possibly by the end of this year.
