Optical disks are still not good for random-access stuff. Good for transferring files and archiving them, that's about it. Booting off them and treating them like a writable operating system drive is worse than using floppies.

On what planet is a Bluray less expensive than a HDD?

I just thought of this storage idea that seems good to me with HD's being more expensive and SSD's even more.  I don't know if it would be possible to use it like I'm thinking though.  I would want to be able to transfer files back and fourth and maybe download things to the disk/delete them.   Then have a little book for storing all the less frequently used files.
