I use the following for media, the price is  in the affordable range for me.

k3b in Trinity, v1.05, does not support bluray.....even with cdrecord from 
jorg schilling.

I installed k3b from Debian, v 2.02, it works fine..to many depends but 
o'well.

I started out with the following procedure, like the way I can loop mount a 
udf file and mange the contents, I like the  independance of the cli.

#create udf file system
truncate --size=25GB /pub/bluray.udf
mkudffs /pub/bluray.udf

#mount udf filsystem, copy files
sudo mount -oloop,rw /pub/mybr.udf /mnt/bluray
sudo chown <owner.user> /mnt/bluray

#burn image
growisofs -speed=6 -Z /dev/dvd=/pub/bluray.udf

'truncate' is part of the 'coreutils' package, also libudf0 , udftools.
