Question

The second largest manufacturer of CD's, DVD's and other optical media in the world is:

• A. Sony.
• B. Intel.
• C. Philips.
• D. Moser Baer.

Hint:

Think of the Indian company that built a large share of the world's optical disc manufacturing business.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

To answer this question we need to recall which companies dominated the world market for optical storage discs such as CDs and DVDs around the time of this exam.

Sony was the clear leader in this industry, given its long history in developing and manufacturing optical media technology alongside consumer electronics. Behind Sony, the company that built up the second largest share of global optical disc production was Moser Baer, an Indian manufacturer that grew from a small photo film company into one of the world's biggest makers of CDs, DVDs and related storage media.

The other two names in the options do not fit this picture. Intel is known for making computer processors and chips, not physical discs, so it has no real place in this ranking. Philips was one of the original co developers of the CD and DVD format along with Sony, but by production volume it was not holding the second position in this industry.

Given that Moser Baer had earned the reputation of being the world's second largest optical media manufacturer, right after Sony, it is the option that matches the question.

So the correct answer is option 4, Moser Baer.
