The drive is used only for burning, as Blu-ray player device would be me in the living room - or wherever - clearly too loud.
Delivered it without any addition, for me a plus. Because all of the wonderful gifts of software ultimately cost money - so as to obtain ultimately a product that is inferior and a software bundle. Since I prefer to invest the complete price directly in the hardware. And who buys a Blu-ray drive, usually also know how to install it and buy a SATA cable just now.
At the moment for me definitely the buy recommendation.
