That's why there are no budget bluray players. I guess we'll have to wait and see, but i think a budget player is only going to be able to output 1080i... which again, doesn't make a whole lot of difference for movies.
To be fair, however, the above link is from 2006 and I haven't seen a better explanation since. If you have a weblink that does this one better, please share.

Because, unlike HD DVD, the minimum requirement for a Blu-ray player IS 1080p. There IS NO BLU-RAY PLAYER IN THE MARKET NOW THAT IS NOT 1080p.

@ Sy
The 1080i vs 1080p has been shot down so many times already that I'm surprised you're using it.
