Explanation

BD-ROM (Blu-ray Disc Read-Only Memory) is the correct choice for the highest definition movie playback. Blu-ray discs support 1080p Full HD and even 4K Ultra HD content, far exceeding the capabilities of other optical formats. CD-RW and CD-ROM are limited to audio and standard-definition data. DVD-ROM supports standard-definition video (480i/576i) and cannot play Blu-ray discs. Only a BD-ROM drive can read the high-capacity Blu-ray media required for high-definition movie content.
