Research and Markets: The Taiwanese Optical Disk Drive Shipments in the First Half of 2009 Were Affected by Declines in Mainstream PC Shipments

DUBLIN--(Business Wire)--
Research and Markets
(http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/95027a/the_taiwanese_opti) has
announced the addition of the "The Taiwanese Optical Disk Drive Industry, 3Q
2009" report to their offering.

This research report presents shipment volume and value forecast and recent
quarter review of the Taiwanese optical disk drive industry. The report includes
optical disk drive shipment volume, value, ASP, manufacturer volume ranking, and
product mix analysis, as well as breakdowns by price trend, shipment
destination, production location, and business type. The content of this report
is based on primary data obtained through interviews with optical disk drive
makers. The report finds that the optical disk drive shipments in the first half
of 2009 were affected by declines in mainstream PC shipments. The inventory
replenishment in anticipation of peak-season demand in the second half of 2009,
along with sufficient pick-up head supply, were expected to help the industry's
shipment volume and value achieve sequential growth in the third quarter of
2009. It is anticipated, however, the industry's third-quarter sequential growth
will not continue into the fourth quarter of 2009.
