I know math's hard man, but if you're going to thread crap at least do the simple math correctly 25GB*50 is not 750GB (that's 25x30) it's 1250GB which is shockingly enough more than a TB (still if you're happy with HDs, that is and likely always will be *much* cheaper.) - and before anyone @'s me, yes it's not really 25GB usable per disc , but a 1TB drive is equally not 1TB usable, they're using the same sort of math drive makers do which is what we all do when giving the price per tb of a drive. We don't convert and then divide, we just divide by the 1000byte number as it's easier.

But really, who the actual **** is going to see this and say, hey I need to buy a burner so I can jump on this? Absolutely no one. This is for those of us who use BD-Rs currently *FOR WHATEVER REASON*.

For those curious, uses for this are largely DV, piracy, or law-firm based (DV: here's a copy of your wedding, piracy: send compressed tv shows /movies to parents/people with readers or for SUPER LONG STORAGE/copy smaller 1080p BR movies, law firms: send client data/police interviews to expert witnesses) which is why the higher size discs aren't readily / affordably available for consumers in the US (BDXL discs are up to 128GB per disc and are quite pricey in the US, much less so in Japan , and most modern burners / readers support them ala the LG WH14NS40.) If you want more space and have a BD burner that supports them the best current deal on the XL media that I've noticed in the us is the 100GB versions for ~$6.50 per @ amazon ( https://www.amazon.com/Verbatim-1...00POY826G/ ) In japan it's closer to $3 per.

This is a pretty standard price for BD-R media, but usually for this price you end up going to plexmedia or ridata at a much lower claimed writable speed.

Thanks for coming to my ted talk

Crucial data in case of EMP. Doesn't have to be nuclear war. SSD and HDD alike are susceptible.

This is why Sony makes 5.5 TB discs that they refuse to sell to the public. Called ODS. Credit card companies back up all transactions onto them.

Why do people still buy physical movie media

lol jokes on you
1. Better video and audio quality than streaming, especially for 4K UHD

2. You own it and the streaming service can never take it away

3. Don't have to rely on having an internet connection

Quote from Luigis3rdcousin :
Well people who are using blue ray discs… for example, I just recently had to capture and back up an old wedding video from 1986, the picture quality was horrible as you can imagine, I try to use all sorts of different software techniques and some new AI tools to try to bring some life back into this video, upscale it to about 1080p. And had to burn on dvd. The problem is, standard dvd is 480p. So all that effort to improve the resolution was virtually worthless. And I found out later the person had trouble playing the dvd on their blue ray player. I wish I had started with blue ray to be honest
Use AVCHD to burn 1080p onto a standard DVD. "AVCHD is a format developed for recording high-definition video on media like recordable DVDs."

Hi I'm earth. Have we met? Virtually everything you buy when it comes to almost anything is made in China. And funny enough, many things made in America is sometimes worse than China 🤦
Made in China always means lower quality, for sure. I much prefer made in Taiwan, made in US or made in Japan.

What do people even use these for these days? This is coming from someone who still buys physical media and has a Panasonic UB820. I just don't see the point in blank 25gb discs. Most UHD 4K films are 50-100GB. So what do you put on a 25GB BD that you can't put on an external drive?
Microsoft Word documents and Microsoft Excel documents, LOL!

a box of these is appx 1.2TB at $35
a 28TB Seagate external is $330, or appx 1TB at $11.

what are the chances of either failing?

You can get 50 RIDATA Blu Ray disc on Ebay for a little under $22.00 shipped. I've never had a problem with them. They always burn great.

I use DVDFab to create Blu-rays for family and friends that still use BluRay players.

I apologize for asking if this question was already asked but is it possible to record on BD-Rs using a PC that has a CD writer? It probably should be common knowledge but unfortunately it is not for me so thank you in advance for an answer because I couldn't figure it out even when I tried an online search.

Comforting to think that when a massive EMP or network outage occurs, the credit card companies will still know how much I owe them
