Bringing Blu-ray to Your Computer

With Blu-ray sitting firmly atop its throne as winner of the messy high definition disc format war, leaving HD DVD floating in its wake, people are finally starting to adopt the new format that’s due to take over from regular old DVDs. That means that it’s time to not only upgrade that DVD player under your TV, but also the DVD player and burner that’s in your computer.

This Sony BWU200S Internal Blu-ray Disc Rewritable Drive will allow you to not only watch HD movies on Blu-ray discs on your computer, but also burn either video or data to high capacity blank Blu-ray discs as well. With capacities of up to 50GB of data, these are many times larger than normal DVDs and are a great way to permanently back up things like your music or photo collections. If you’re looking to get just one Blu-ray drive, getting one for your computer and then hooking your computer up to your TV can be a great way to get the Blu-ray functionality on both your computer and in your living room.
