April 10 2003 was the first day for consumer\u2019s devices to be brought to stores. It was named the Sony BDZ-S77 and the first recorder BD_RE was a Japanese made device and was only available in Japan. The price recommended was the US $ 3800 but then there was a deficiency of the more secure DRM system which was much needed by the pre-recorded videos and the movies and was only available in Japan.
