In D "which have increased in storage capacity over the years" says that compact disc have increased storage capacity. This is a meaning error.

Like compact discs, which have increased in storage capacity over the years, the technology used for digital video discs has allowed more and more data to be squeezed onto smaller spaces.

A. Like compact discs, which have increased in storage capacity over the years, the technology used for digital video discs has allowed more and more data to be squeezed onto smaller spaces

B. As with compact discs, which have increased their storage capacity over the years, digital video discs has allowed more and more data to be squeezed into smaller spaces

C. As it has with compact discs, increasing their storage capacity over the years, the technology used for digital video discs have allowed more and more data to be squeezed into smaller spaces

D. Like compact discs, which have increased in storage capacity over the years, digital video discs have more and more data squeezed into smaller spaces

E. Like that of compact discs, which has increased in storage capacity over the years, the technology used for digital video discs has allowed more and more data to be squeezed onto a smaller space

OFFICIAL EXPLANATION



Answer: D.

The original sentence has a faulty comparison between “compact discs” and “the technology…” Eliminate choice A. Choice B has a subject-verb agreement error with “discs has.” You should also use “as” to compare noun and verb phrases. Choice C has a few errors, but the most obvious is the subject-verb error with “technology…have.” Choice E has a misplaced modifier because it appears as if the “technology” of compact discs, not the discs, has increased in storage capacity over the years.
