Default The New Acronym For Blu-Ray

Hey guys, what is the official acronym for Blu-Ray movies (i.e., DVD, CD, etc)?

I was thinking, how about "BRD (Blu-Ray Discs)?" The "BR" portion accounts that its high-definition because we all know that Blu-Ray is pure High-Definition while the "D" constitutes the disc part?

What do you guys think?

You guys are too funny!

Nothing about Lord of the Rings on BD either, that's always a plus!
