I recently bought a second PC Blu-ray writer just in case this would happen. Lucky me. I should be good for the next 10 years.

Looks like they're still available for now in the UK but at inflated prices sent from America

The above supports UHD and is easy to... adapt for legitimate ripping of your Blu-ray. For backup purposes of course.

I think Panasonic still make some too but I've used LG ones for years.

What's the make and model number? The link is funky if your AMZN location isn't set to UK

BP60NB10, though that may be different by region.

Also had just as much success, including with UHD BD, with the older BP50NB40.
