Microsoft prepping Feature Pack for Storage with Blu-ray for XP and Vista
Microsoft's first step in supporting Blu-ray, 360 drive imminent?



We're not going to get back into the Xbox 360 + Blu-ray debate, but Sony's HD format is clearly on Microsoft's collective mind, as it's begun prepping a new Windows add-on dubbed Feature Pack for Storage. The kit's set to contain modules for portable drive recognition and restriction, ICCD and CCID Smartcard drivers, but most notably an image mastering API for Blu-ray that enables "master style optical burning on Blu-Ray [sic] media." Expect it soon on Windows Vista, XP SP2+, Server 2008, and Server 2003 SP1+ -- or really soon if you get in on the beta.

Ever notice how microsoft finally admits to their fail, and even after their announcement to stop manufacturing and licensing XP, they still develop newer software for it.
