>whether these Criterion BDs are region-free?
Yes: originally Region A, turned into region free, w/o AACS and/or BD+ shit.
>any software that allows viewing Blu Ray rips with menus etc.
No idea about Macs, but full BD playback on PCs support Arcsoft TotalMedia Theatre Platinum (folders and
images) + Nero ShowTime (folders and images) Cyberlink Power DVD (only images). Pretty much any latest
version of popular software players (MPC, VLC, XBMC, Zoom Player FLEX, etc.) will play BD files, but not
menus.
>Does anyone have any experience with external Blu Ray burners?
For now it's cheaper (and faster) to store BD50 on HDDs. Burning BDs is currently an expensive hobby and
might take 1-1.5 hours per disc.
