Got a couple of combo drives as well (dvd burner, Bluray reader) $170

Burner...Pioner BDR-202BK $300


that's cheap enough for me.....


(should have just bought burners cause they came with two blank bluray disks as well so difference was actually stuff all)


All prices are the retail bundle of course, not just a bare drive.

Are you serious?

If you are, it will most definately NOT play at blu-ray quality.

It's a great way to store a lot of movies in a medium that's not always spinning such as a hard drive.

My divx collection is pretty good quality.

So maybe only 30 movies to a disc
