Pioneer does Blu-ray at 400GB across 16-layers
That’s 25GB per layer. The technique used by Pioneer should be backwards compatible with all of the existing Blu-ray gear since the specs and lenses needed for pickup are identical, but it’s not clear if players would need some kind of modified optical pick-up to see the data. The prototype they used is read-only but they just need time. Pioneer will give more details on July 13th.
