Blu-Ray Audio

[BluElite]

Hello all,

I am currently in the process of stepping into the world of hi-res audio. I have started my collection of 24-bit music but common sense tells me that since CD's are only limited to 16-bit, I'm going to need either Blu-Ray discs or DVD-A discs. I'm going with Blu.

My questions are the following: What is the best blu-ray audio burning software for Macs? Also, do I need to get an external blu-ray drive to burn my music? If so, what is the best one to get? Finally, are there any differences between the different brands that sell blank blu-ray discs or are they all pretty much the same?

Thanks in advance to anyone who can shed some light on this. As of now, I have no way to listen to this precious 24-bit audio! I have a bunch of AIFF files I'd like to get on to blu-ray disc but I'm looking for the best avenue to accomplish the task on my Mac.

I don't get it. If you have 24 bit music why do you think you need to burn to a bluray or DVD-a. 24 bit music is 24 bit music no matter where you put it. What are trying to listen to it on? Are you just trying to store it for archiving?

Wonder if we'll get the Mike Oldfield 5.1s on Bluray audio? That'd be lovely.
