You won't be able to find anything that plays 'bluray dvds'

You can, however, get software that will play Blu-rays. WindDVD and PowerDVD have versions that play Blu-rays.

Microsoft is working on an update that will support Blu-ray...but currently you can't just get a codec to play Blu-rays

Haha

Then you gotta fist over the money! Blu-ray is way tooo new and has way too much copyright protection to have free players out there.

Hmm...let me guess...you're from the U.K? Haha...your verbage does give you away!

Thankfully WinDVD came with my laptop so I don't have to go out and buy any expensive software. But when I buy I buy a player for my desktop I will be in the same boat as you!
