i thought that bluray was burned with a regular dvdr drive? and that bluray was just a different codec or some shit. I wanna burn bluray but do i need a special bluray burner? i use sony vegas for my personal editing and it offers to burn in bluray format. ---

Bluray is 25gb, DVD is 4.7gb… You are obviously down sampling it if you are burning to regular DVDR. For computers a bluray player is around 100 bucks, a bluray burner is around 200. Its not worth it yet, bluray blanks are still about 5 dollars each. ---

I wanna burn bluray but do i need a special bluray burner? i use sony vegas for my personal editing and it offers to burn in bluray format. Different wavelength of laser. Much narrower, i believe 300ish nanometers compared the 650nm of traditional dvd lasers. Its also Violet in color. ---

or you can just do what i did and buy a burner and then buy a media player that plays MKV files and rip blu-ray movie onto that, you will save loads of money in the long run with the price they are at right now ---

IMO at least. Also surprisingly Wall-e is amazing…even if it is animated
