Have a hankering to make Blu-ray discs? Sony has you covered with its new BWU-300S 8x Blu-ray Disc Writer that can encode a 25GB disc in under 15 minutes – 50GB disc takes 30 minutes. The drive isn’t exactly mainstream yet with a $400 price tag, but I can recall paying the same price for my 4x Pioneer DVD-R burner. Sony is sweet’n the deal a bit and throwing in Blu-ray copies in Men in Black and The Fugitive. Yours next month.
