Got around £800 to spend, looking for a nice blu ray burner. Also anyone got any links for cheap/good BR disks?

But don't you find it a vicious circle... you end up filling it, buying another bigger HDDrive and filling that... and then so-on and so-on... hoping that none of your drives ever fail Very Happy

Sure, but if they fail, just download again - not a big deal. Also, I'm a firm believer of "If I need it, I will find it"; I don't store a lot of stuff, like some people here (huge game collections, for instance). I have the patience to wait a day in order to download. I only save stuff that I really appreciate, like favorite movies, etc. Smile

And even if failure occurs, what, every 3-4 years? Still a lot cheaper and space saver (physical).

I used to store stuff on CD's and DVD's until I realised they can go bad in storage, not to mention the hassle of having to find them again when you want them - but unlike you I can't rely on my ISP, so having all this stuff to hand is useful.
