Anyone know how to tell a pirated BD from an original?
The only way I know how to tell is that BDs are translucent when looking at the underside of the disc whereas DVDs are always reflective.
But what about writable BDs?
Are they translucent as well?

I just bought the Matrix Trilogy and the printing and main box material is questionable.
Individual disc package however is fine.
The discs are also translucent like all my other BDs and according to my PS3, they are all BDs.
There is also a hologram sticker on the box.
In fact, everything reassures me that they're not some pariah quality BDs...except the printing and main box material.
I've also bought a number of BDs from this seller and I've been very happy with all of them.

Is this just how the packing for The Matrix Trilogy is?

Good to know the BDs are legit...bad to know the packaging is so crappy
