Actually bluray writers are cheap and very popular now. However the trend is to streaming services. Bluray is on its way out.

For those of us in the USA, Newegg has a blu burner for $65 on sale. Come on guys no excuses.

Blu-Ray is definitely NOT on its way out. Streaming multiple 25GB movie files won't be commonplace around the world for over a decade, if not longer. Until unlimited Internet bandwidth is available, it just won't happen. Sure, ISPs are trying to create premium packages for this purpose but it will take many years for that testbed to even become a viable option.

Physical discs are here to stay... for at least another generation.
