How to Play Blu-ray Movies on a Mac Computer

As a matter of fact that mac computers fail to ship with Blu-ray drive and regular DVD drive can not play Blu-ray discs (BD), therefore if you want to play Blu-ray movies on a Mac computer, some widgets are necessary.
First off, to make it work what you need is an external Blu-ray drive, which you can get from Amazon or somewhere else.
Then there are two ways you can go: the paid way, or the free way. For the former one, you just need to pay for some money and it is nice and simple to run the app and play Blu-ray movies, while the later way will take a lot longer and there are a lot more steps involved to watch a Blu-ray movie. Let’s talk about them one by one.
So the paid way is you can download a Blu-ray player for your Mac. After a quick google search, I came across this application call Macgo Blu-ray Player. Right now it is only $39.95 which is a pretty nice price. Comparing to other Blu-ray players much more expensive, this is a really good deal. Now I will showing a Blu-ray disc playing on a Mac computer. You can directly get this Blu-ray Player software from its official website: http://www.macblurayplayer.com.
If you did have a Blu-ray disc in your computer or in your drive currently, just open the application and go to the title menu to play the Blu-ray the movie directly. You can select the standard features of a media player and there is a “Share” button at the bottom by which you can directly share informations to Facebook or Twitter from the application. By the way this application is normally a Blu-ray player but it can play pretty much any types of media file, so it is very versatile.
Then let’s go to the free ways. There are two application involved here, MKV player and VLC. For their operation process are too complicated and sometimes fail to work in a good way, I will not list the details here, and you can just see the detail process in the video below.
