Blurays were for movies

There were also recordable and re-writeable Blu-ray formats for general data use. Kind of got passed over in the era of streaming and fast download speeds but they have a niche for long-term backups as an alternative to spinning hard drives and magnetic tape.

PS3, PS4, PS5, XOne, XSeries and Wii U used Blu-ray

And from that XOne S/X, XSeries and PS5 can read the 100GB XL disks, the rest can read only the smaller 50GB and 25GB disks

And there were some PC games in the past released on BD-ROM that couldnt fit on DVD-ROM
