I am thinking of buying a BluRa burner-does anyone know if they make blu ray blank discs and what are they called?
Thanks
Jayson

BD-R, only buy Verbatim.
See http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.ht...reative=390957

Get those.

hmm, 10 single layer BDs for under $25. that's less than a dollar a BD.

now, roughly speaking, i can fit 5 single layer DVDs onto a single layer BD.
so imagine 100 DVDs in a spindle tub fitting into 20 BDs.
wow, so much space saved.

sure, the BDs will still have SD content.
but i'm ok with that.

i'll wait a bit longer.
for prices to drop a tad further.
and for 8x BDs to be the norm.
