hopefully it'll drop the price of the old read only unit. I'll be watching newegg for the closeout.

How much is the media these days?

Now all we need is media to start coming down to earth :)

wow, blu-ray burning is almost here, probably another year or so. I remember buying my first DVD burner @ $175, and discs cost me around $2.50 each. So Hopefully by next year the burners will be down to around that price, and hopefully blank blu ray media will be going for around $3 a disc.
Then I can stop with the .mkv burned to DVD9.

Looks sweet. I'm considering getting this later this year. Brownie points for HD-DVD support!

Note only the GBW-H20L burns Blu-ray.
Go to their website and you'll see, the other two only read Blu-ray drives.
