I bought a BD writer for my HTPC.
But, the included software was crippled and would only deliver stereo sound.
I bought BD software.
But, Dolby TrueHD and DTS-D was crippled because my HTPC doesn't have a protected audio path. So the audio is downsampled.
I bought some Blu-rays.
But they all have a warning that they might not play on older players. And one didn't and had to be returned.
I bought Windows 7 Media Center
But none of the fancy popup menus, or BD live features work with a standard MCE remote control or even with a mouse.
So, I'm a little disappointed with the format.
