    The bluray is an export of the movie with lower compression flashed to a BluRay disk. Then we rip it back out of the disk.

    The BluRay does not really add value besides as a physical storage medium. It is about as useful as DVD’s were in the past.

      It’s more useful than breaking into a cinema, stealing the hdd and emcryption keys and storing the screening file on your server.
      And more useful than camrips.

      What I want to say: It’s the best you can get to archival quality without aquiring the source files.

        For sure but I used to think that BluRay in itself had any added value as in “it is better than the quality of a playable file”. But it does not. It simply is like a DVD which contains a high quality version if the film.
