“Paper DVDs on the horizon”:http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/technology/3639585.stm — The disc is 51% paper and could offer foolproof security, said officials.

“Since a paper disc can be cut by scissors easily, it is simple to preserve data security when disposing of the disc,” said Hideaki Kawai of Toppan, which worked with Sony.

The disc is based on blue-laser DVD research, one of the technologies that could replace the current generation of red-laser DVD players.

Blu-ray discs can hold around 25 gigabytes of information, compared to the current limit of 4.7 gigabytes for a standard DVD.
