Sure but storing blu-rays is silly, just rip them to disk. Use a lossless codec if you're picky.

Agreed on turning them digital. If you care about quality just remux them though, all a lossless codec is going to get you is a 10x larger file with the exact same output.

If only remuxing could get rid of the black bars that Blu-Rays include in the video stream because the spec only allows a small number of resolutions which surprisingly don't include any 21:10 ish aspect ratio common with movies.

Even just a convention for storing crop coordinates in metadata that players could automatically make use of would be godsent. Although a perfect solution would need to support varying this throughout the movie as some cunts (Nolan) like to use different aspect ratios for diffent shots.
