- WORM is usually an offering on a Magneto optical platform, but
- can be implemented many ways. But I am pretty sure most
- WORM devices are CONCENTRIC RINGS of sectors and are absolutely
- not RED BOOK style SPIRAL CD TRACKS.

- I envision a cost of $3000.00 in 2.5 years for the organic dye
- based mastering systems. Of course you will need software to
- create the tracks and hopefully competition or piracy will make
- that component affordable as well.
