You may happen that when insert a Blu-ray into your Windows 8 computer and want to watch a movie, but nothing happens. You may have already tried opening Windows Media Player, but it can’t play the disk. "What’s going on with Windows 8 and Blu-rays?" You will ask this. The answer, basically, is that Windows 8 cannot play Blu-Ray disks out of the box.

Why? Because the software technology for playing these disks isn’t free — Microsoft previously paid money for every copy of Windows sold, just for the right to use the patented technology needed to play Blu-ray Discs. Considering the ever-increasing number of devices without optical drives, Microsoft decided it wasn’t worth paying for features many people can’t even use.
