I am sticking with the free VLC until he answers my questions. Blu-Ray Player is definitely better than VLC but is it worth $60 more for the additional features?

Wouldn't it be F***ING nice if Apple actually supported Blu-ray playback and data writing on Blu-ray discs? I'd personally love Blu-ray support built in to burn my data to discs for archiving data.

If you want BD playback on a Mac, Get VLC - it plays everything, it's free.

according :
"First thank you for using our program.
When you playback Blu-ray films, about 4-5 seconds are needed to remove the Blu-ray protection with network.
So I'm afraid you can't play your blu-ray disc offline.
Sorry for inconvenience."

Why rate something poorly twice? Hey I know, why not rate it 100 times and really mess up the whole point of this website...
A "1" rating on a "10" scale should be reserved for somewhat that is zoo poor in quality it does not even load or worse it damages your system. This application plays Blu-ray movies, exactly what it says it will do.
As to you not having internet access, in what tree are you using your laptop?

- officially bought and licensed Blu-ray movies
- with officially bought and licensed Blu-ray Player SW
- on officially bought and licensed Blu-ray drive
Again: without Internet connection you cannot watch your Blu-ray movies.....you just get something like " Key server not available"
My recommendation: stay away from this product if you (like me) are after watching movies in times with no Internet out in the trenches........

This software seems to be stable enough now for a rating. The last several versions worked fine on my Mac Pro (early 2009) a quad-core Intel with 10.7.2 OSX.
The software takes you straight to the movie, bypassing the previews and standard trappings of the traditional Blu-ray DVD. I'm not sure I consider this a defect, since all the junk in front of most films is something I do not miss.
As for this legality issue related to VLC open source code, I don't see how this is a user issue. I have paid for more than one application that appears to be a rip-off another application (for example: BusyCal is iCal with window dressing -- kinda shocked Apple does not sue them).
The Mac world needs Blu-ray movie capability, so I'm not one to look for reasons to not buy whatever solution finally arrives (despite all the initial problems). If like me you love movies, have an HD monitor, an HD capable video card, and a 5.1 sound system -- you want to be able to play Blu-ray. Now you finally can.

=================
Diagnostics steps taken:
Removed current version of Blu-ray player, including all preferences and associated files.
Loaded version 1.0 of Blu-ray player.
Loaded Blu-ray movie and started Blu-ray Player software. Movie starts.
Stopped movie and closed Blu-ray player. Restarted Blu-ray Player and searched for updates. Downloaded current version. Loaded software.
Started Blu-ray played and tried to start movie. Movie would not start. I get the following error message:
Failed to get Blu-ray disc playlist.
What do you want me to test next? As I have stated from the beginning, version 1.0 works and the releases after 1.0 do not.
Mac Pro with 2x 2.26 GHz Quad-Core Intel, 16GB DDR3, OS 10.7.2, Matshita Blu-ray device (internal).
=====================================
Failed to get Blu-ray disc playlist
Both of my Mac minis running Lion, so my question is why does it work with Lion but not Lion server?
