Why are they marketing/selling recorders prior to readers (BD-ROM drives)?

I really dont give a crap about burning to Blu-ray, but when DVD first came out, Creative Labs came out with a DVD drive, with it's own decoder card for $200 (back in 1998). So may I ask why haven't we seen ANY BD-ROM drives?
