Best buy in USA has few in store stock of LG
Model: BP50NB40 SKU: 9243009
No longer available for shipping
On sale for $92
Good info, as I see a few around in the stores. Question: Does this generally work with makemkv out of the box for non-UHD blu-ray discs? Looking for a 2nd drive to use with makemkv and have no need for UHD support.
Thanks.
Doug

I've since flashed mine from best buy to rip UHD discs, but the spare one I picked up from ebay and haven't flashed yet rips non-UHD discs just fine.
