Affordable HD storing/playback server 4 blu discs

What are my options - if any - for being able to copy my Bluray disc collection (and Netflix rentals???) to a media hard drive storage server? Can any of the Kaleidascape units copy, playback and store - bit for bit - my discs, without the disc having to be present after it's stored? I'd like to plan for the future, when there aren't any bludisc players, period,and be able to sell off my disc collection. Can HT PC's do anyting like this, and playback bit for bit of the original?
I'd of course like the most cost effective route, but would explore all the possibilities? Or am I resigned to having to keep my bluray discs to get the original quality and HD audio/video on the source?

try checking out a program called AppGeeker Blu-ray Ripper. The newer versions allow ripping from blu-ray as well as DVD discs. the program gives you options to alter audio bitrates/codecs and the same with video. It also lets you determine file size, which for a 1 stop solution, is kind of nice.

You can rip the Blu-ray and extract the content to lossless MKV file, or to any other file format on your hard drive.
