Sony is killing off recordable Blu-ray, bidding farewell to disc burning | TechSpot
In an interview Sony gave to AV Watch recently, the company admitted it's going to "gradually end development and production" of recordable Blu-rays and other optical disc...

Bluray disk cost 25$ for 50gb and usb flash drive cost 5$ for 64gb
The 25GB disks are like 10¢.
Where? I see only 30$ for 5pack of 25gb bd-r
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005004217228740.html true, now that you've showed me example, on Amazon it's cheaper, i just didn't bought Blu-ray disks before and this is what I've seen from advertisements
I'm not sure what country you're in, but have you tried Amazon? I found Verbatim 50 packs of 25GB for $40 and Ridata (usually good quality discs) for $28. If you want small amounts there's various 5 packs for less than $10.
for 35€ you can get 512gb flash drive. kinda insane to think about that. maybe even cheaper but that was just what I found from my local store
Yes, flash memory came a very long way, when current nodes of 3nm going to be old enough for mass producing growth memory, there's gonna be 5tb microsd cards probably, since we're already having 2tb ones https://www.tomsguide.com/news/the-worlds-first-2tb-microsd-card-is-here-what-you-need-to-know
the storage density growth is so mindboggling that I find myself hesitant to trust it lol. 2tb?
fuck me running
It's getting harder and harder to make things smaller, but they are making things thinner now, which means they can layer them, thus increasing density.
Damn, a 50gb blu ray costs 2€ in my country.
How can I afford to buy Criterion Collection Blu-Rays for $14.99 if blu-ray discs cost $25?
That's read-only, not read/write, plus they're buying bulk.
Economy of scale and also slightly different, but related, media format. Criterion has them printed in bulk.
Yeah ok, but as we've established in this thread, Blu Ray discs don't cost $25 a piece. At any level. So.
Again, writable Blu-ray is a slightly different format from what you would buy with a movie on it. They are not putting Criterion movies on the same discs you could burn them to in a drive.
