The funny thing is that you have a bunch of people defending Blu-Ray as a technology and the only reason they do that is because they bought a PS3.
There has been ZERO movement in lowering pricing for Blu-Ray anything aside from PS3. The technology is dead as a door nail and has absolutely no way of hitting mainstream.
What's funny is that there's a huge amount of fanboys thinking that somehow we should all wait for another 10 years for Blu-Ray to take off, like we live in the freakin' nineties. :)
High prices ALWAYS = niche. It's very obvious there's absolutely no competition among CE companies. $500 players is not competition. It's price gauging that nobody is buying.
It's just a matter of time before those CE companies getting ass raped by Sony wise up and drop Blu-ray and go to something more efficient like network based DVD players, TVs etc etc. That's the future after all not some ancient optical media format.
It's totally laughable to continue supporting any type of optical media, a technology that is inferior to anything we have on the market these days, not to mention slow as ass.
