The related area is available and writable on DVD-Rs. |

DVD-Rs have been introduced in September 1997. You coul only buy them with an |
| 13 |
OK from the Pioneer boss. In February 1998, I received a sample drive for |
| 14 |
cdrecord development that I had to bring back to the Pioneer CeBIT booth in |
| 15 |
March.... |

At CeBIT-2001 a third generation of DVD-Rs was introduced. This third |
| 18 |
generation introduced a quite different wavelength. It is sold since autumn |
| 19 |
2001 and the media delivered for these drives is prerecorded at the place where |
| 20 |
the CSS key is expected. |

If you have good connections to a media manufacturer to get the media before |
| 23 |
the pre-recording starts and if you have good connections to a drive |
| 24 |
manufacturer that produces drives with special firmware for the prerecording, |
| 25 |
you can do ;-) |
