There was a company called Constellation 3D which was developing a product called a fluorescent multilayer disc several years ago. Sounds exactly like what is being described in the article.
Basically there were pits with fluorescent dye that could be read with a laser. Seems that there was some sort of scandal related to a "demonstration" they did at COMDEX 2000 in which the demonstration actually played from a hard drive and not from the disc. They went out of business and their website disappeared and I hadn't heard about them for a long time. Now this article pops up seemingly touting the same technology.
