Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised if any generic BD burner is capable of working under Mac OS X. Job's comments had nothing to do with burning discs, as can be seen by looking at them in context. They were to do with content, with watching Blu-ray movies on Macs. That's why Philip Schiller added "We have the best HD movie and TV options in iTunes." afterwards.
This is yet another DM "Someone said something bad about Blu-ray so I'm going to pretend they did something stupid" article. The only surprise is that he didn't blame Toshiba.
Actually, it's more of another "Steve Jobs is a fascist who wants to control everything on a mac and make money off of any media that you see on a mac and mac users are stupid enough to take whatever he'll let them download and not demand better"

Why is this labeled just for the Mac? The web site says, in its requirements, "Operating System: Windows XP & Vista and Mac OSX"
