Verbatim is doing more than just keeping the formats on life support – it also unveiled new hardware at CES 2025. Its Slimline Blu-ray Writer lets you back up 4K video to Ultra HD Blu-ray and even comes bundled with antiquated Nero disc burning software.
This is the important part imo, given that LG and Sony both pulled out of the USB Blu-ray reader-writer market

Means we’ll be able to rip Blu-ray’s into the future. At least, that’s what I hope. Need to check there are cracks for these writers.
EDIT: Won’t link to it here, but many Verbatim writers, UHD and otherwise, use Pioneer hardware internally and are therefore crackable.
What’s the benefit of cracking the drive?
Probably that you can backup your own media
It’s a bd writer, it can backup my media out of the box.
Edit: oh, I see. You mean “backup”. Lol gotcha. Yeah, cracking would be needed for that.
Yaaarrrr.
