I hooked up an MCE 8X Blu-ray Disc External Recordable Drive ( ) to a Mac Pro running OS X 10.6.8 via USB to test it out. The $40 software works in conjunction with a third-party Blu-ray player, although the company doesn’t list any such players or even system requirements for playback.

In the past, we’ve written about Blu-ray ripping on the Mac, a workaround that would allow you to watch such movies. Since then, no Mac has shipped with a Blu-ray drive inside, and watching a Blu-ray movie on a Mac using an external player hasn’t even been supported by OS X. Back in 2008, Steve Jobs referred to Blu-ray as “a bag of hurt” due to the complex licensing surrounding the high-definition video format.
