How a Blu-Ray disc is burned
How a Blu-Ray disc is burned

A pointlessly proprietary and expensive video format from the makers of UMD that will most likely be remembered as "Betamax 2: Teh Quest for Moar Lulz." Sony is trying to force consumers to own a Blu-Ray player by integrating it into the Playstation 3, bumping the price to $9999. Too bad Sony does not realize that 80% of us are not spoiled wiggers who own HDTVs; thus making Blu-Ray a pointless waste of money to the casual consumer. Blu-Ray is being supported by major studios who needed a new way to rape consumers after they had already resold them the same dvd's multiple times just adding "super special edition" to the title. President of Warner Brothers Asscrack McDervish said "I love taking people's money. They are stupid sheep who will buy what we tell them". When not playing Blu-Rays also make excellent coasters.

Specs

Blu-Ray's storage will be available from 25GB to about 200GB. Game developers have rejoiced, knowing that with the extra space (and the insane horsepower of the PS3) they no longer have to spend time to efficiently code games for file size or FPS. They also don't have to compress files anymore. Developers can be as sloppy as much as they want and get away with it (Because 13 year old boys think bigger file size and minimum system specs = better games. Too bad they're full of shit.).

Lazers

Blu-Ray disks use blue lazers (shock!), where DVDs and other future old media use red lazers. Blue lazers are more expensive to make because blue lazers are clearly more awesome than red lazers. The blue lazer diodes are made of fairy dust instead of concentrated shit. This is why Blu-ray disks cost at least 100 dollars each and why nobody can get the drives.

How the Laser Diodes Are Made

Apparently this is how the disks are made.

Java Software Support

The whores over at Sun decided it would be a damn fine idea to put Java into all Blu-Ray players. So now Alan Turing can pwn both your browser and your TV! This basically just adds moar fail to the drives, which increases their ripoff factor.

Country Codes

Your favorite anti-piracy bullshit, now with new region codes!

A/1 USA, Canadia, Mexico, Uruguay, Paraguay, Korea, Japan
B/2 Europe, France, Middle East, Africa, Australia, New Zealand
C/3 China, India, Russia, Vietnam, Tibet
BINGO Bat Country, Ghetto, Bethesda

This shit also has new "features" that allow Big Brother to send your player to Bantown. If you're rich or retarded enough to actually buy a Blu-Ray player, you should probably hack that shit for maximum piracy and win. Fuck the man!
