Need Expert Advice - Blu-ray Forum

I play Blu-Ray Movies on my PS3 on my Sony XBR8 46" HDTV. I want to get a Sony Blu-Ray Burner. Are there any that come with LightScribe? I am running Windows XP on a Compaq Presario right now, but I can also use a Dell Latitude D620 running Windows XP. I am looking for an External Blu-Ray Burner.

The only LightScribe Blu-Ray Burners I have found are LG. So which brand of burners are better Sony or LG? How much space do most commercial BD-ROM discs take up? Which brand single layer and dual layer BD-R disks are the best? (No skipping, no pausing/freezing during the movie, unless I press the Pause button)

I am upgrading to a Mac Pro soon, and I will run Windows XP on it through Boot Camp, so I want the burner to be Mac compatible.

BTW, I'm not a Sony fanboy, if you're wonderin...

Only Blu-ray drives outside of LG, with light scribe, that I've seen are "Lite-on".
