It is Blu-ray (editing the post title)

I got a DVD writer in late 2006 for 1,700 Rs. I really wonder if I would ever get an optical drive with blue ray laser diode anytime soon.

Thanks for bumping a 80-day old thread. Blu-ray drives won't get so affordable for another two years, atleast. So, you can continue to dream on..hehe

How did you come to this conclusion dude! Rupee has gone stronger these days $1.00 = Rs.41/40.00 (and decreasing) or so hence $1,000 would be around 41,000/40,000.00. Dunno about the taxes though.

Btw, a Blu-ray writer nowadays is available (in the States) for a $500. The prices are coming down...

HD DVD writers on the other hand are even cheaper...

It will take 5 more years for Blu-ray DVD Writers to hijack the current position of DVD Writers(cost-wise).
