LG will be releasing the second generation versions of their hybrid HD optical disc drives for PCs. The new GGW-H20LI will retail for $500 USD and can read both Blu-ray and HD DVD formats as well as write dual layer BD-R/RE at 6x. The $400 USD GGC-H20LI can read both formats as well but cannot write to Blu-ray. Both drives can write DVD+-RW as well as CD-+RW.
LG also announced that they would be offering a promotion alongside their $1200 USD Super Blu BH100 where any purchaser would get their choice of 10 free movies in any format. The company also said a second generation version of that player was in the works, with no further details provided.
