Best Answer

It's the same with DVD optical drives. A Blu-Ray reader (or player) is a drive or a stand alone Home Theater appliance that can play or read Blu-Ray movies or read Data on Blu-Ray discs. A blu-Ray burner is a drive that can write or "burn" data on Blu-Ray discs.

I'm actually using a USB Blu-Ray burner with my system. It's from a company called DIGISTOR. Very very nice. Hope the answer helped.
