| Basic Idea in Founding the CDs21 Solutions |
|
 The
CD, or Compact Disc, which debuted in 1982 as a package medium
and was succeeded by CD-ROM for data use and Video CD for video
use, has made remarkable progress through merger with CD-R/RW,
a recording medium characterized by retaining the compatibility
with those CD members.
Due
to its vast range of utility, the CD family has now fully integrated
itself into our everyday life to create a new culture and is
still advancing as a platform on a global scale.
On
the other hand, the significant development in recent years
of communication technologies represented by the broad band
is greatly affecting our daily life as well as the existing
business surroundings. The rapidly and increasingly changing
environment with the arrival of the 21st century is likely to
offer new business opportunities to such sectors of industry
that are promoting their own businesses based on the CDs.
The
task of CDs21 Solutions being organized against this background
should be centered on providing truly useful information relevant
to those CD-platform-based businesses that contain a variety
of elements, such as hardware, disc media, distributions, services,
contents making, environmental and social issues. CDs21 Solutions
should thus strive to promote them for their further progress.
With
the principles for action announced as under at the outset,
CDs21 Solutions shall move forward so that it may contribute
to the realization of affluence in the heart of people. This
is our basic idea in setting up the association.
| - |
To pursue ever more development
of the industrial sector concerned by striving to closely
unite the technology and the contents in the area of CD
platform as well as by looking into future technologies. |
| - |
To aim for the creation of
a new AV culture which can further enrich the life of
people. |
| - |
To promote the development
of mutual businesses by fostering an environment where
the knowledge and information can be shared by all as
a common property. |
