Major Products
Segment sales in Japan rose substantially, encour-
aged by the strong performance of LCD TVs,
three-in-one DVD recorders, and audio systems.
Despite the successful launch of HD-ILA rear pro-
jection TVs in the United States and growth in
sales of LCD TVs and other products in Europe
and the United States, overseas sales declined
due to the lackluster performance of such prod-
ucts as digital video cameras.

Recordable media
Pre-recorded audio and visual software,
including CDs, DVDs, and videotapes
Sales of DVD recording media soared; however, a
drop in the price of such products as mini DV
tapes caused sales of recordable media to remain
relatively unchanged.
Sales of pre-recorded music software decreased
due to the postponement of major releases by
popular artists and the expiration of consignment
contracts.
