Hi def players WERE under $200 and were pretty much complete at that price. But the PS3 killed them with its $500 subsidy. So now we wait for Blu-ray to catch up. As for "2013", does anyone believe that no one will have anything better on the market than blu-ray by then? Moore's law suggests a factor of 10 every five years....

HD DVD was also highly subsidized, more than blu-ray stand alones.
