I bought a BluRay for my Thinkpad and my Desktop. Very rarely use them, but on occassion I do. When I use them, I use them to rip movies via MakeMKV but honestly that is the only BluRay use they ever get. And mostly the desktop, the laptop doesn't have the memory to encode hi def in reasonable amount of time. Unless you want to rip movies, which may violate certain laws in certain
