Way too much $$$ for something that might end up as a coaster.

Still, it's nice to see the price falling on the burners.

As for them not including it in computers because of the format wars or because of the AppleTV, I can see your point, but don't necessarily agree with it. Apple has always prided themselves on being the early adopters of new tech before others made it available (and often, others did include it first but many say that Apple was the first). But Apple was one of the first on the BDA, if they were concerned about it not being the future they would have waited before joining. Apple is also big in the video processing area - you would think that they would want to be one of the first to have support for it. Final Cut Studio has some support for Blu-ray (and even HD DVD), so you would think that they would want to include ASAP to advance that buisness (and claim that that they were used to master the next big movie), not later.

As for AppleTV, I can see the point, but if it is to protect AppleTV then it is the worst possible thing for consumers. First an AppleTV is not a portable device like a MacBook is. Having a Blu-ray reader in a MacBook, and taking that device on the road to show others the quality of the movies would be a great Boom! moment. But it also means that people are tied directly to their TV, when the AppleTV is, as SJ admitted, a hobby, sacrificing having the best (disclaimer: I am a HD DVD fan, but it is over now so BD is the best available now) in their laptops to help out a very small, niche market is not a good decision.

Blu-ray has been rumored to be in the next version of their desktops and laptops every time a new version is released, but like many of the other rumors (Beatles on iTMS announcement that was supposed to happen 3 superbowls ago, LED macbooks that never happen, etc) it never seems to happen.]]>Jun 3rd 2008 11:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/lg-unveils-6x-blu-ray-burners-be06-gbc-h20l-and-gbw-h20l/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/lg-unveils-6x-blu-ray-burners-be06-gbc-h20l-and-gbw-h20l/

thanks for the words of wisdom...you said it before i could get it out. I'm seriously so sick about people whinning about how expensive the disks are. YES THEY ARE EXPENSIVE. i mean, DVDRs at one point were for "rich people" when dvdr drives first came out (compared to cdr). The one thing i love about blu ray discs is the ability to put a boat load of crap, on 1 disc. For example....i have the simpsons seasons 1-18 on my comp...a lil under 50 gigs...id much rather burn all of it to 1 disc for 15 bucks, or 2 discs for 9.99 a piece then spend the time to do it on 12 dvd r discs, or 6 dvdr dl discs. Plus in the future if the theortical 200 gb, or even 100 150 gb discs to come to fruition i could back up entire HDs worth of media]]>Jun 4th 2008 4:11PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/lg-unveils-6x-blu-ray-burners-be06-gbc-h20l-and-gbw-h20l/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/lg-unveils-6x-blu-ray-burners-be06-gbc-h20l-and-gbw-h20l/Jun 5th 2008 1:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/lg-unveils-6x-blu-ray-burners-be06-gbc-h20l-and-gbw-h20l/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/lg-unveils-6x-blu-ray-burners-be06-gbc-h20l-and-gbw-h20l/Jun 4th 2008 3:32AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/lg-unveils-6x-blu-ray-burners-be06-gbc-h20l-and-gbw-h20l/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/lg-unveils-6x-blu-ray-burners-be06-gbc-h20l-and-gbw-h20l/Oct 1st 2009 8:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/lg-unveils-6x-blu-ray-burners-be06-gbc-h20l-and-gbw-h20l/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/lg-unveils-6x-blu-ray-burners-be06-gbc-h20l-and-gbw-h20l/

When CD burners first appeared, it was years before they cracked the sub-$1000 level, and the media was unreliable and ridiculously expensive.

DVD burners and media reached sub-$1000 levels more rapidly, but still not as fast as these Blu-ray burners.

I saw both the external and internal versions of the LG Blu-ray burners last week on the shelf at the local Fry's. I was quite surprised at the pricing.

One note about the LaCie unit mentioned previously - it comes with USB and FireWire interfaces, and more importanly, full versions of software for PCs and Macs: Toast 8 Titanium; Easy Media Creator 9; PowerDVD BD (for HD playback with Windows). The LG software bundle is WIndows only, and more limited.]]>Jun 4th 2008 12:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/lg-unveils-6x-blu-ray-burners-be06-gbc-h20l-and-gbw-h20l/http://www.engadget.com/2008/06/03/lg-unveils-6x-blu-ray-burners-be06-gbc-h20l-and-gbw-h20l/
