Blu-rays are exceedingly funky. There is total space, then there is "formatted
space", where there is space reserved for the hardware to try writing
a new copy of a sector that failed. A lot of writer software turns on
the formatted mode by default. I went through a lot of this getting my
isopack software to write to blu-ray, and wrote up some of it here:

Of course I also had a batch of media that would always fail around
97, 98%. The new media I got is working fine.
