Anyone burning Blu Ray's yet?

[Dizaster]

I hadn't even thought about this until tonight.. The last time I saw blank Blu Ray discs for sale they were $32 Australian which is around the same price for a new release movie on Blue Ray,,,, so really there was no use.. If you can buy the a proper real release for the same price as a disc and burning a movie, then why not.... Then you factor in the price of the burner itself it wasn't worth it...

But perhaps these days the blank discs have gotten a little cheaper, at least buying in bulk of 10 or 20 discs... And I assume more companies are making burners now so there are some reasonably priced ones out there...


Anyone with experience of this yet?

This isn't blu ray related but something I just discovered... My PS3 has a cool auto clean function.. You turn the switch off at the back, then hold down eject and turn the switch back on...
You'll then hear the fans crank up to warp speed for about 10 seconds to blow dust out, then the thing turns off again... quite awesome... I'm not sure if it works for all PS3's though..
Go try it if you havn't already..

They sell a pack of 8 for $99 here at Costco, me and a couple friends pitched in and bought a pack for a friend of mine who got a writer.

OK that couldn't have been right, this was a couple years ago but has the price really gone down this much?

The main one is just storage. A DVD can hold at max 10 gb usually maybe recently they've gotten them to store more. A Blu Ray disc can hold 50 GB and potentially more. That's the main thing.
