You know all the guys who say "blue ray"? How are they even getting to this site in the first place? The URL clearly says "blu-ray."

i mean in all honesty, for people new to the format i can understand how they get confused. the color blue is associated with the format (obviously), and most newbs probably dont get that the "e" has been cut off.

405nm is closer to violet than it is to blue.

Same reason so many people spell disk 'disc', they don't know any better.

Disk & Disc are 2 diffrent things.
Blu & Blue are 2 diffrent things

If you go to google.com and search for "Blue Ray" this is the first site, so I'd guess most of said people aren't actually typing the site name.
