A method for magnetically recording digital video signals includes the steps of: converting input digital video signals into data segmented into blocks each composed of a plurality of pixel data; compression-coding the blocks of pixel data block-by-block; converting the compression-coded
A perpendicular magnetic recording medium having a magnetic layer comprised of a metal magnetic thin film on a nonmagnetic support. The half-value width of the switching field distribution obtained from a remanent magnetization curve in the intrinsic easy direction of magnetization (axis
