More specifically, let's see how the production of these tricky little discs is going. Right now, Sony has three lines functioning with the capacity of 25,000 of the single-layer 25GB discs per day (750,000 per month). By October, Sony wants to push around 5 million discs per month by increasing the number of lines of production. Also, six of these lines are intended to manufacture the 50GB dual-layered Blu-ray discs.That's... a lot of disc-making. Maybe that's a common number among new, still fairly unproven media formats, but tossing out 5 million by October? Sony seems fairly confident about this item. But would we rather them not be confident and produce very few? That would be worse, wouldn't it? Just think -- maybe one of those dual-layer discs created this October will be used to house your very first PS3 game! That's... marginally exciting.
