Here
is some exciting news for production minded buffs. TCL a large computer,
communication, consumer electronics manufacturer in China, will soon be adding a
total of 80-100 additional production lines, the result will be a whopping
50 million disc a month capacity! The word over
at DigiTimes is that this will really put the pressure on other
manufacturers and that TCL intends to sell the discs under it's own brand
name.
 TCL
completed construction of a large factory in Guangzhou, southern China
last quarter, the suppliers indicated. The factory has six initial
production lines with monthly capacity of three million DVD+R/-R discs.
TCL has funds on hand for the expansion, but will put it off for an
unspecified period, as the Chinese government has removed optical discs
from the list of products for official subsidization and the cost of PC is
still high, the suppliers pointed out.
