Kaleidescape is looking to capitalize on that with the introduction of the industry's first Blu-ray movie server. The system stores exact copies of your Blu-ray Discs on its hard drive and makes it easier to enjoy your collection of movies. It offers high-resolution cover art combined with a brief synopsis of each film and other details to make exploring your collection of movies exciting. The bad news is that this $1,495 Modular Disc Vault will need to be connected to an individual player which will set you back at least $2,500. Still, if you're rich enough to have a fairly large Blu-ray Disc collection, you shouldn't have any trouble finding the money to fund this purchase."</em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/wpt/auto/1292505332.usr11334.jpg" style="border: 0;" /></p><p>If you're looking for an all-one bluray server then Kaleidescape have come up with the goods, albeit at a price. This device will allow you to store your blurays on it while populating the movie info from its catalog of 145,000 movies. I would love to try one to see how it compares to my existing solution as it certainly looks a much slicker and nicer process than I have to go through to add a copy of my bluray disc to my windows home server, followed by adding it to My Movies. Unfortunately it's a tiny bit outside my price bracket!</p>
