| The title says it all mostly It would be nice to have a RBD (Retail Blu-ray Disc) option for storage, with the growing popularity of blu-ray I'm sure more anime will be released on it, I already have Appleseed Ex Machina on Blu-Ray, I have it set to RDVD right now but it would be nice for it to say "RB 1.0", "BD 1.0", or "Blu-Ray 1.0" in the future. Thanks Mod Edit: Modified title for clarity and/or easier searching. |

| Perhaps just group blu-ray with dvd. Instead of the option "Retail DVD" we can have "retail DVD/Blu-Ray". That should do the trick without adding a new option. Otherwise yeah, this would be a good idea with the growing Blu-Ray market. |
| I don't see the harm in adding a new option for BR. It's nice to differentiate it from DVD, to indicate you have it on a HD medium. But I suppose it depends how Xinil has coded the backend. I'm assuming it's just a simple int, in which case adding more options like BD is totally trivial, and very worthwhile. |
| I also don't see the harm of just adding another option, there's already a tone to choose from, and i don't think it's that hard of an add, but only Xinil can know. |

llxwarbirdxll said: Retail VCD's should be added to the list as well. Hm, I've never seen anime on VCD. Seen more laser discs (anyone remember those?) than VCDs. >.> |
| I have some anime on VCD. I see a lot of it here, but then I work near a chinatown. And the releases aren't usually legit. |

llxwarbirdxll said: Yeah. I actually have quite a few on VCD. Most were brought when I was in Hong Kong.Well, people might have imports. |
 |
| Well eventually be added. |

| Any update on this? I now have 4 Blu-ray titles with many more to come. |
|
| The blank disc is too expensive for now..so I'll wait till the price decreases. For now, I'll stick with DVD+R Single Layer |
| The title pretty much says it. With Bluray becoming a larger format, and many anime series being released on Bluray (not that much now, but the number is increasing) I think it makes sense to add in a Bluray option for the "storage type" when you add/edit a series. I've seen at least the Dragonball Z specials and movies on Bluray, as well as Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children. Not done much more legwork than that, but it's still evidence that there's more to come, and the feature is needed (and surely, very easy to implement?). |

| More and more anime is coming out on bluray disc now, so I think the "storage" drop down should include that. |
| really now, this is quite a simple suggestion and there is no reason for it to not be implemented. Do it Xinil. Do it now or you might as well get rid of the storage feature altogether. |
| Signature removed. Please follow the signature rules, as defined in the Site & Forum Guidelines. |
| With Blu-Ray being the newest and best Anime "storage" right now, and many of us are converting to that format as we're on here, wouldn't it be only right to add it to the list with DVDs, CD's, etc? So, please, add Blu-Ray to our storage options. |
| It should have been done long ago. I guess they will do it in another ten years. All hail CraveOnline Media. |
| I actually found more serious the fact that LaserDisc (LD) is not included either, since at least with BD you can claim that "it hasn't been included because the section hasn't been updated in years" but you have no excuse with LD. I understand if uncommon formats like Betamax are omitted or forgotten, but LaserDisc was THE format of anime until the advent of DVD in Japan so the omission of LD is almost unforgivable, because it makes the whole section pretty much useless to any serious anime collector since there many older/obscure anime that are only available in LD, and they were never (and probably never will be) released in VHS, DVD or BD. |

| It might just be me but it really irritates me that I can't put in that i own an anime on blu-ray only dvd :/ Would be awesome if this could be done, shouldnt be much work either |
| Indeed, the "DVD/CD" should be changed to "DVD/BD", or even better, Blu-Ray Disk having/being its own category. I fully agree, thank you for the thread. |

This sounds quite interesting which anime's for example are you talking about ? |
| Threads merged. Since some of them were like 4-5 years old, I didn't message the thread starters since some of the users may no longer even be on the site... This has been implemented. |
