Frost & Sullivan believes that the market will be completely reinvented in that time with magneto-optical growing moderately in sales but losing optical drive share to CD and DVD. Indeed, the researcher believes that the latter two technologies already jointly accounted for 83 per cent of 1996 revenues in the sector.
