Wanna make my own blurays, idk what software people use. I used to use dvdfab for dvds but my files are bluray mkvs so I imagine dvdfab would reduce the quality. Would like ones I make to work on real players. The printing side of it I already have figured out

i get it, i collect them too. but only retail releases. no way to control the quality if the source isnt authoritative.

to me, if youre 1-to-1 copying a retail blu ray, then authoring isnt required. if youre ripping it and compressing it (losslessly or otherwise), keep it on a nas for easier access. but if youre downloading a movie from the web and burning it, i dont see the point, since its already been compressed most likely, or at least you cant be sure its a great copy. especially with the audio side.

i knew a guy who used to make full backups of redbox blu rays for archive purposes. that made sense to me.

as to why might you be trolling, well, this is the kind of troll post id make haha
