Do you own a Hi-Definition DVD Player and Burner?

they're definitely coming down in price. The blank media is still kinda high though.

Yeah, regular price $120 for 15. I see one site has 15 for $55, that's doable. It would suck to get an error or bad sector burning one of these bad boys, though

Well I am going to be honest. Blu Ray discs are hard coated, meaning they can't get scratched and while at Best Buy the other day, I seen a 3 pack of Memorex for $12.99. Now I know everyone hates on Memorex and of courese they are not as good as Sony or Verbatim, but Verbatim BD discs are 20 bucks a pop and Sony has 3 packs for $50.00.

Now given that I would want to get more Blu Ray boots, that is the dilemma. The price is right for those Memorex, but would anyone accept them even though BD discs have that hard coating.

Don't see why not. Not sure if Memorex's Blu-Rays are as quality as their DVD+R's/-R's, but I use Memorex blank media quite often, and they work for me just as good as Sony's do. Honestly, I've had the most problems w/ Philip's. Plus you can't be expecting people to drop $50 for 3 blank Blu-Rays consistently.

My thoughts exactly Nick.

Thanks for the honest reply. I have a Metallica Blu Ray that is almost done being authored and if I want to distribute it, I need to find an affordable way to do that.

As I said, ALL Blu Ray are hard coated. So in this instance I would assume you are more paying for the name more than anything. I am sure quality might be slightly better, but I am thinking of grabbing a couple just to see.

Last month alone I spent over 100 bucks on 4 BD discs and to be honest, I am not sure I want to do that again.

We have an HD TB IT is a 42 inch Olevia. We recently put blue ray player in one of our computers and hook it up to the TB when we watch Blue Ray movies. I do this also when I want to watch my favorite TV shows in HD. I like that the networks offer their TV shows to be watched anytime off their website and have HD players. It is nice to watch my favorite shows in HD anytime I want.

I've never had any problems with memorex either.
Maxell's always seemed to give me troubles for some reason.
But it terms of Blu-Ray, I do not have a burner, I just use my PS3 for playing the media for now, which looks great on an HD Aquos TV

The best price i have gotten BD-R Blanks for is around $10 Canadian. I use a lot for my busniess so price is very important......

I use this site, they have sales sometimes and i usually buy a pile when they go on sale.
