I'd like to be able to rip Blu Ray discs to my computer, but Bly Ray drives are pretty expensive. What's the difference between a computer drive and a player that connects to a TV that makes the drive so much more expensive? If anything, it seems like the player would need more processing power to actually interpret what it reads, but the drive just needs to pass information from the disc to the computer.
Is there a way one could take a Blu Ray player and turn it into a Blu Ray drive that could connect to a computer?
2Maybe there's less people who need blu-ray drives than players so the economy of scale/competition don't work that well. Also, this question might not be very suitable for superuser. – billc.cn – 2014-06-20T20:32:01.670
