Do all blu rays have a hologram on the back?

[carz990]

Ive got around 50 blu ray dvds and about 10 dont have the hologram on the back, mainly the warner bros like the matrix for example. Is this rite?

What do you mean by hologram? Is it a sticker of some sort?

[carz990]

you know the seal of authenticity on the back of the case like the disney dvds have, them looks like a hologram

None of my 100+ Blu-ray Discs have them. You must not be in the US.

Piracy is nowhere near as widespread in the US as it is in other territories (especially Asia, but Europe can be bad, too), so overseas video companies use holograms to indicate product authenticity. The disparity in prevalence of piracy is most likely due to the fact that home video is greatly over-priced in many markets outside the US and Canada.

Of course, pirates have gotten good at making holograms, too.

You could argue that home video is greatly over-priced in the US too. Maybe not to the same level as Europe, but still too pricey.
