1.0 out of 5 stars Problem writing to these., January 18, 2008

By	J. Fernandes - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Bought two of these to make backups of some work data and had problems writing to both. Since they are write once, it was a waste of money. Should have paid the extra for re-writable. The burner worked fine with the re-writable disc I purchased.

5.0 out of 5 stars The truth about these Blu-ray disks, May 10, 2008

By	Kent Roorda (Denver, CO United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have used these disks with absolutely no problem. The problem with the previous reviewer is that he/she tried to burn a Blu-ray disk on a Standard DVD Player/Burner. You can't do that! You must have a Blu-ray burner to burn a Blu-ray disk! As with other Hi Defination devices, it is usually the "user" that is at fault, rather than the product. For instance, many people [still] believe that just because they own a HDTV, they will see HD programming. Not so! The same goes for Blu-ray. Just because you bought a blank Blu-ray disk doesn't automatically give you the ability to burn a Blu-ray disk. Both Sony and Panasonic make some very nice Blu-ray computer drives which can both read and write Blu-ray disks. They aren't cheap, but you certainly get what you pay for.
