Its press statement says that "in addition to providing highly reliable audio, video and data recordings at speeds of up to 3.5 MBps with the new 24x drives and 3.0MBps with the new 20x drives, the media can be used with existing CD drives at speeds ranging from 1x to 16x."

Volume shipments of the discs are available immediately. ®
