Drop the price Blu-ray titles and people will switch. We aren't getting enough in return to justify the cost increase. The vast majority of consumers just want to watch the movie. They don't care about the extras. So for them a slightly clearer image and slightly better sound won't make people spend the money.

Highly Ranked

exactly, you are 100% right. there aint any reason why BD discs cost so much more.

Studios need to learn that for them to fight piracy and digital threat, they need to offer BD at more competitive pricing, which would only be slightly more expensive than DVD, not treat it like Laserdisc 2.0, and charge a hefty premium.
