Blue Ray hardware - Asking Advice [SOLVED]

[HeXiLeD]

I am planing to replace my dvdroms by a blue ray player/writer.

How is the kernel support for Blue Ray ? Is it the same as for regular dvdroms ?
and as for software ? ( burning and reading )

I have read this topic here but i would like more general info.

Brands, models, prices, ideas; anything is welcome

Thanks

The topic you linked to has all the info you need: Get a drive for which patched firmware is available, latest kernels have the necessary filesystem support (UDF 2.5), then there's the list of available software for decrypting. There's no clean all-in-one solution yet, the closest is piping from DumpHD into MPlayer. That's all there is to it in general. That thread then goes into specifics.
