.....for photo capture and archival. Jeez you folks are so music centric. This media is a near holy grail for the digi-cam folks.
1) Write once media so you never loose pictures
2) Extremely low cost per megabyte that allows you to use the disk as backup permenant archival.
3) Allows you to take unlimited pictures on vacation versus toting along thousands of dollars of flash memory.
4) Rugged versus flash or mini-hardrives
Yeah the RIAA may love it and see it as another way to sell Led Zepp's Freebird YET AGAIN but the photo guys see it as cheap, tiny, and the answer to a lot of nagging problems.
