Drive arrived safely, tested it briefly and everything seems to work correctly. Thanks Billy!

I thought he was still testing the firmware? Are they available to buy now?

Yes, check the original post in this thread. You will need to email Billy to place your order.

Thank you, this was very helpful (especially the tip about a 120 second cut-off being too long). This saved me a ton of time figuring out which tracks were which. One small correction, however. For Lifted, you listed 00039.m2ts. However, that is actually "Extra-Terrien" which is essentiall...

Is your email the best way to place an order?

Via an email I had with him, it doesn't sound like he's taking pre-orders or any sort of list of buyers. He has advised people to follow this post or his post on Reddit. He'll probably update the original post in this topic (and maybe add a new reply) when he's ready to take orders. My advice is to ...

Interested as well, depending on the price. Has that been announced?

He estimated $350 a few weeks ago, but I don't know if that's concrete.

I hope Billy got a grip of these drives or there are going to be some disappointed people.

He confirmed on Reddit that he's gotten them in-hand but is working/waiting on the flashing side of things with the drives.

Honestly, I bought an LG BP60NB10 for $130 new and flashed it while I wait for Billy's Pioneers. I've been able to rip 98% of all discs, mostly UHDs, including ones I pick up used that aren't in pristine condition. I'm sure the Pioneer will last longer and cover that 2% but I do think it's worth con...

There is no wait-list, he's mentioned this a few times to just follow his post here and/or Reddit.

Updated the spreadsheet. 2452 total entires, 107 more than last time! https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1XgBqUDMwN-_CvbQssa7KVY_j56kimrgfePAH7i3dStM/edit#gid=239174210 Does any update exist for this list since the January 2024 update? Is it still being actively updated? Thanks so much for this...

Here are the segment maps and auto-naming (t## e.g. t01, t02, etc) for all of the episodes on the Bluey Season 1-3 Blu-rays (BBC slipcover version, released ~December 2024). I thought this might be useful for anyone ripping their discs and looking for a specific episode. Each disc has all of the res...

Anyone know how long he typically takes to reply to email? Is there a better way to reach out?

I've only emailed him once, but he replied within 24 hours. If you're looking to buy a drive, as of the last day or two, he doesn't yet have any Pioneers available.
