Blu-ray will be around for awhile, as for downloads this seems to be a reoccurring argument enough of it already. We all know that one day that will be the way to do things but not while ISP’s are limiting your bandwidth. And don’t forget all the DRM that they want in downloads to keep people from pirating or sharing like wanting to watch it at a friend’s place without purchasing it again. I see physical media as the standard for at least ten more years, and even after downloads overtake physical media it will still be many more years before physical media is gone, just look at CD’s everyone said that they were worthless once everyone started to download MP3’s, well CD’s are still here even with sales being down.
