Personal preference. Who uses blu ray? Who uses DVDs? Anyway.

If you want to read/write blu-ray disks, then buy a blu-ray reader/writer. If you don't, don't. You can get a blu ray writer for ~?50, so it really shouldn't be a big decision. If you don't buy one and later find you want one, you buy an external one for basically the same money. Don't lose sleep over it. jh
