Interesting news, but is it actually happening, or is it speculation:

"This company is currently finalising patents for its key
manufacturing processes, which relates to the Blu-ray layering
process. With its improved manufacturing process, they expect to
have less than a 20% rejection rate, which would put them at a major
advantage over its international competitors."

This reads like they don't actually have a production line in place yet.
