LAS VEGAS (Reuters) - Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd. (005930.KS) will release an 80-inch plasma television set, a portable music player that runs for 42 hours on one battery and a DVD recorder that copies one disc directly from another, the company said on Wednesday.

Those products are among a broad range of media devices Samsung plans for 2005, all on display at the Consumer Electronics Show here this week.

Samsung plans to release the 80-inch plasma TV in May but did not name a price. It bills the display as the world's largest plasma TV, though Samsung has actually demonstrated a prototype 102-inch set.

The long-life MP3 music player, with prices ranging from $120 up to $200 for a 1 gigabyte model, supports systems to copy-protect music and includes popular MP3 player add-ons like an FM radio tuner and voice recording capabilities. It will be available this month.

The dual-tray DVD recorder, permitting direct disc-to-disc copying, is set for the third quarter with a $500 price tag. Samsung says it can copy two hours of video in 30 minutes.<snip>
