Rep Power: 3  |  EVD format: Chinese companies planning to stop making DVD players Zhang Baoquan, the secretary-general of the EVD (Enhanced Versatile Disc) Industry Alliance has said in a statement that leading hardware manufacturers in the country would stop making DVD players from 2008. These companies now plan to start supporting their own homegrown format known as EVD. Baoquan said in a statement: “Nineteen out of our 21 member manufacturers will be producing EVD players with compatible function only by 2008.” Until now, only one major hardware company has been making EVD players and just around 700,000 units were sold last year. Storage format is not alone; the Chinese tech companies are also considering shifting to their own homegrown standards for third-generation mobile phones, wireless local area networks, digital TV, and home networking. |
