MO = "Magneto Optical" http://www.usbyte.com/common/MOsystems.htm
MO, as implemented by DVD-RAM, is also called "Phase Dual" sometimes.
Both "Phase Change" and "Phase Dual" have very high error rates at write-time. It is typically 10,000x worse than typical magnetic or WORM (write-once) optical media. I.e., error rates are 10^9, instead of 10^13, meaning you can expect 5 errors for every full DVD.
