BluRay discs carry high definition television and therefore store data in a high density format. A standard definition DVD player will not recognise a BluRay disc and will simply report an error if one is loaded. On the other hand, a BluRay player will not only play BluRay discs but will also handle standard DVDs. Most will also recognise and play CD format discs. Most Bluray players will also down convert the HD signal from a BluRay disc so that it can be viewed on a standard definition television. In this case, of course, the image quality will be the same as any other standard definition signal. To benefit from the high definition signal, an HD television is also required.
DVD players cannot play Bluray discs. The lasers and the data storage are different so no data can be read from a Bluray disc in a DVD drive. That is the case whether or not there is any up-scaling available in the player. Bluray players on the other hand are quite happy to play DVDs as well as Bluray discs.
No. The slot-loading drives on all current iMac models (and most previous iMac models) will only accept standard 12cm (120mm) diameter discs. Smaller discs may (and usually do) cause problems with the drive, up to and including complete drive failure. Smaller discs require tray-loading optical drives; the only iMac models that included tray-loading optical drives were the early iMac G3 (CRT) models, and the iMac G4 ("Sunflower," or "Desk Lamp" style) models.
