What Are DualDiscs And Can DVD Players Play Them?

DualDisc is a controversial new format that is a disc with a DVD layer on one side and a CD-type layer on the other. Since the disc has a slightly different thickness than either a standard DVD or standard CD, it may not have complete playback compatibility on some DVD players. DualDiscs are not officially recognized as meeting CD specifications. As a result, Philips, developers of the CD and holders of most CD patents, do not authorize the use of the official CD label on DualDiscs. For more information on DualDisc, check out the DualDisc Website.
