now if was a burner, i'd be talking, but just a reader, lame]]>Jun 24th 2008 12:20PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/06/24/pioneer-lowers-blu-ray-combo-drive-price-in-china-sony-unit-to/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/06/24/pioneer-lowers-blu-ray-combo-drive-price-in-china-sony-unit-to/Jun 24th 2008 12:44PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/06/24/pioneer-lowers-blu-ray-combo-drive-price-in-china-sony-unit-to/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/06/24/pioneer-lowers-blu-ray-combo-drive-price-in-china-sony-unit-to/
But I mean burners not ROM drives.

If a $100 = £50 reliable Blu-ray multi-burner is on the cards I might even be interested......

.......provided they can get the 50gb DL media reliable enough & out at a decent price.

Right now tho DVD & HDDs are a far more cost effective solution
and besides putting more movie files on the 1 disc or burning downloaded high def that's larger than a DVD9 to a single larger disc I really have no need for any of it right now anyways.]]>Jun 24th 2008 2:26PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/06/24/pioneer-lowers-blu-ray-combo-drive-price-in-china-sony-unit-to/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/06/24/pioneer-lowers-blu-ray-combo-drive-price-in-china-sony-unit-to/Jun 24th 2008 11:27PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/06/24/pioneer-lowers-blu-ray-combo-drive-price-in-china-sony-unit-to/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/06/24/pioneer-lowers-blu-ray-combo-drive-price-in-china-sony-unit-to/
It's way too 'negative' for some to make the accurate & totally true point that HDDs & 'ordinary' DVD are still by far the least expensive storage option.

Here in the UK it's £71.82 ($145) for a Verbatim 10 pack of x4 25gb discs with jewel case.

A single TDK 50gb DL disc is £26.22 ($53).
A single Sony 50gb DL disc is £19.70 ($40)

A single Verbatim x4 25gb disc is £6.58 ($13)
A single Sony x2 25gb disc is £10.88 ($21)

in a bluray topic, both nfinity and truthteller have chimed in and didnt' have anything blatantly negative to say about it (being the product or topic). i'm def gonna play the lotto manana...

but on a more serious note, i think i know what i'm getting myself for a x-mas present. if not hopefully for the after x-mas sales. Swami sez...sub $150 blu ray burners will be available ]]>Jun 25th 2008 6:10AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/06/24/pioneer-lowers-blu-ray-combo-drive-price-in-china-sony-unit-to/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/06/24/pioneer-lowers-blu-ray-combo-drive-price-in-china-sony-unit-to/I think this is my last post ever on engadgethd...

As seems to be the norm around here with your Blu-ray fanboy lot you'll either just use an existing alternative identity or invent a new name.

(no need to deny it it is a fact & exactly what several of them said to me I should do here on these boards)

Eith way you'll be around.]]>Jun 25th 2008 10:50AMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/06/24/pioneer-lowers-blu-ray-combo-drive-price-in-china-sony-unit-to/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/06/24/pioneer-lowers-blu-ray-combo-drive-price-in-china-sony-unit-to/Jun 25th 2008 2:39PMhttp://hd.engadget.com/2008/06/24/pioneer-lowers-blu-ray-combo-drive-price-in-china-sony-unit-to/http://hd.engadget.com/2008/06/24/pioneer-lowers-blu-ray-combo-drive-price-in-china-sony-unit-to/Jun 25th 2008 5:35PM
