We've seen a couple of these "
Blu-ray factory-in-a-box" setups already, but thought we'd run another set by you just in case you missed the first wave. The ReflexBlu2 and ReflexBlu4 go for $3000 and $5000, respectively, and can burn Blu-ray, DVD-R and CD-R discs. ReflexBlu2 does up two Blu-ray discs per hour, while the Blu4 manages double that. Both systems hook up to your computer via USB, and sport 250GB HDDs for holding on to nine Blu-ray disc images at once. Sure, the price might sound steep, but your extended family will be thanking you later for those 1080p editions of "Family highlights '07" you'll be able to mass produce this next holiday season.

It's some pr0n in a box!
Looks like the "futuristic" version of a bluray burner some movie prop dude thought up in the 90's.
So 5000$ for a disc burning machine and then a lot more for the actual empty discs. Lolol
Dumb question, but do these replicators exist for HD-DVD, or is this another nail in the coffin for HD-DVD?
Another nail in the HD-DVD coffin... HD burners are much slower, and can't hold as much data (they only burn single layer 15GB). Just not worth it. Plus, blu-ray burners have been out a lot longer, so the development time has been spent on blu-ray.
1080p family films... riiiiight...
They already have hd-dvd burners out there... I remember an article on a gaming laptop with one in it and for the whole laptop it costs as much as these.
why not just buy a blu ray drive for a fraction of the cost, and replace one of your cd/dvd drives?
That thing id 5g's!? Thats alot of boot leg movies to justify that gadget.....
