Primera Claims "World's First Blu-ray Duplicator" - Did anyone notice?
Primera has officially begun shipping the worlds first Blu-ray duplication machine.  This machine, the Bravo XR-blu Disc Publisher is definitely a machine not just because of the $5000+ price tag, but also because it is a Pioneer BDR-101a in a box with a little laserjet printer as well.   Bravo XR-Blu Primera.jpg

Apparently this will be helpful when Blu-ray discs are worth copying.  A single-layer Blu-ray disc can hold 25 gb's of data, but will set you back about $25 just for the disc.  About $1 per gig of storage isn't exactly a good deal when you can get a 250 gb firewire drive from Office Depot for about $200.

You could also buy blank DVD discs for about $1 each and they hold 4.7gb, about one third the price of a Blu-ray disc.  None of those stats factor in the price ($500+) of a Blu-ray disc recorder.

So for now, don't buy a Blu-ray disc burner, or duplicator and just wait 6 months and buy one for $300 and discs for $5 each, that'll be a good deal.

great post. Thanks for waking me up to it. I never thought this machine would come out so soon. Look out for Bluray pirates in your local mall soon..

Where are you paying $1 per blank DVD's? Even in june of 2006 DVD's were only $.30 each thats only $.065 per gig. On top of that todays 500GB hard drives are only $110 with a 5 year warrenty thats $.22 per gig. Even if Blu Ray were competative who would want all the new security protocalls that keep you from copying in the first place. DVD's will disappear one day but it won't be because of blu ray. Every time sony has tried to make a new format they failed! Refrence BetaMax, 8 Tracks, and minidisks.
