Hey guys how much does a Blu-ray disc cost?I know there are single-layer(25GB) and dual-layer(50GB) discs,so how much does each cost?

And is it expensive to burn our own Blu-ray?Like getting a Blu-ray burner for the PC,buying the Blu-ray discs,and burning stuff onto it?How much does a Blu-ray burner cost?Don't get me wrong,I just want to store all my HD stuff on the Blu-Ray discs I'm planning to get a new Blu-Ray player,Samsung BD-C550 soon

Correct me if I'm wrong please I'm new to this stuff

It's probably more cost effective and convenient to store all your HD stuff on hard disks and play back using a media player.

You are probably right Was just wondering though,cos I want to know more

Should have asked this in the Blu-ray thread,didn't realize there was one

I hate the bluRAy thread, what they're discussing is bluray titles they bought from Amazon, then continue with the delivery date ship etc over-enthusiatically. They want those free gifts packaged with the BD in the box as a collectibles. They enjoy open each disc case, reading the content on the booklet or box, load the the disc, and play and keep all again bla bla rather than to have a home HD database in the server, choose movie from an iphone-like coverflow and stream anywhere in the house.


lariiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

aww... you are just jealous of those guys who can actually afford to buy BDs unlike you who only know how to rip off HD movies......

Some people likes to collect junk. Hey, it's their money. Who are you to complain?

TS: Burning HD movies to BluRay is expensive and waste of time. It's cheaper just to buy another hard disks and more convenient.

Just copy to hard disk. Easier, convenient, fast and cost saving.

lol ya lor, sad to say that got hd players in the market. rm160+ for 1 tb hdd = almost 1000 movies if average 2gb. even if u power pack got 20-40 gb movies, still can fit around 20-30 movies. 160/30=~RM5 per movie. err, maybe add internet bill and electricity...but aiya, come on laaa

+1

Ya,convenient way too to copy the HD movies to HDD,but I gotta ask,where do u guys get the movies from?Can tell me please?

hey that one cannot discuss ok

lariiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

Most people choose to put $ on their hardware but not on software..

that is so pathethic, isn't it?

Yes!

can get used bd's from garage sale here ma... once watch finish, then resell or keep, up to u. 1 day save rm10, 1 week can get 1 bd, ok mah!

Lol guys you musn't assume what I mean so fast...

How else to assume,bro? You were planning to download illegal bootleg stuff and burn it onto a BD right?

Fantastic idea..keep it up..

I was just asking bro,not seriously gonna do it Haha lol no I'm planning to get a BD player soon,so I want to know more things

you will know lot of things once you bought it. no worries.

Get it first,bro, then you'll know.

It's less complicated than the Big Bang Formula, btw

Haha

I plan to get a Samsung BD-C5500

It went on a reasonable price sometime ago. I think about RM389'ish..

Just 1 question. Downloaded BD or HD movies. Do we still got DTS-HD master or Dobly True HD to play ?

or just some stereo = =

I tink a dune Prime wld suit u jus fine..

all tings considered..
D

99% is 48khz DTS 5.1 only (unless you download those around 50GB real copy of BD)
