Sanyo's corn discs can't stand the heat
Setting back our own private efforts to develop an MP3 player out of soybeans, Sanyo says that they've been forced to delay the introduction of their corn-based optical disc. The first MildDiscs were supposed to have been out last year, but apparently Sanyo was having some problems with discs melting when they got above 122 degrees Fahrenheit. That's not enough for them to melt under most normal circumstances, but given how hot PCs get these days it could mean one messy CD-ROM drive.
