Quick question: I'm thinking about buying a burner that can read 4k films. Does the firmware upgrade from BDR-UD03 to BDR-UD04 always work? What are the disadvantages? Or should I just buy a 43888 with
Pioneer BDR-UD04?

Yes it works with all drives but if you find a 43888 why bother?

@Fox_Mulder: But have a good look at the drive before buying if you want a 43888 with Pioneer drive only. Because since recently there are 43888 with LG's BU40N released also.

OK. Thanks for the info.
Can you see it on the packaging?
What disadvantage does the LG have compared to the Pioneer?

How much should the firmware cost? I'm trying to decide which is more worthwhile.

IMO the BU40N is the best of the LG family so it wouldn't be a mistake to get one.
