What's the scoop on the new read/write optical disk and digital tape
standards that will soon come to a store near you? How can I get
technical data? Are schematics, manufacturing processes, etc. for
drives, players, and storage media available anywhere.

Would anyone be interested in building a 2-disk, 2-tape machine that
sells from $200? How about building CD upgrade kits? I imagine the
work on improving storage capacity would be fun.
