Why it is necessary to create backups of your Blu-ray collection on Mac 10.9 Mavericks and Mountain Lion?


Firstly, as we know, Blu-ray Discs are easy to break, but a digital copy is safe and permanent, even if the data get lost, there’re ways to recover.

Secondly coping Blu-ray movies on Mac will protect your BD Discs from scratches – will you still hunt for a movie in hundreds of Blu-rays while you can easily search and play it with a remote control?
