Interest in DVD writers is soaring--and no wonder: The average price of a drive has dropped by more than half in the past 18 months, and prices are destined to go even lower. Rewritable DVD has a ways to go before it approaches the popularity of CD-RW (competing, incompatible formats remain a serious issue), but its ability to put 4.7GB--nearly seven times as much data--on a CD-size disc is sure to cut into CD-RW's turf.
