Anyone who thinks that blu-ray drives are slower check wikipedia.

Ps3 Blu-Ray drive @ 2X = 72Mbits/S

Xbox 360 DVD Drive @ 12X = 127Mbits/S

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DVD (check Speed chart for a 12X drive)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blu-ray (Check speed chart for a 2X drive)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ps3 (check the hardware section for drive speed)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xbox_360_hardware (check section on drive speed)

You Sir Fail

The 360 DVD drive is only 8X for DL discs.

 

 

 Where did you get that from?

 

As far as I am aware pretty much all DVD drives read DL slower than SL. Here is the FAQ for the Hitachi GD7500. For reference the Hitachi drive in the 360 is the GD3100 which is an older model.
