Blurays are the creation of master ragebaiters, you're telling me a single layer bluray witha lil scratch can't be cleanly ripper but a double layer bluray with 5+ scratches including 2 over 5cm long gets ripped fine. Like wtf man this is bullshit.

My media pc is getting worse. Now it won't read some double layer blurays. Am I cooked?

Japanese firm stops production of Blu-ray disc drives — Buffalo says there will be no successors to its current trio of portable USB-attached drives

Firm, best known for its networking and hub products, is adjusting its external storage lineup.

It has been 0 days since SI units and binary units made me think a storage device had more capacity than it really did.

In this case a BD-R DL disc that supposedly has "50GB" really has 46.6GiB.

I remember how simple life seemed when I believed that a backup to a CD was thought to be "a good safe backup" and the belief that it would last for ages.

Apparently the Mission Impossible 7.1 bonus bluray is 4,67GB which is almost as small as a single layer DVD. which crackhead though that was a good idea.

Replacement Playstation optical drive from TotalConsole works very well -- this was being discussed as a drop-in-and-go replacement (not tuning) and it's worked with everything I've tested it with so far except one CD-R that I burned about 18 years ago.

My original Playstation from 1996, which I mod-chipped and in which I recently replaced the PSU (and optical drive).
