JBDragon: I still disagree. your point would only make sense if the PS3 did not currently rent/sell HD/SD movies tv shows. Yes, they do have a lot invested in their precious blu-ray. And if your point was valid... why the hell is Samsung doing something like this? They're selling diversity, a cheap slogan would suggest "we play blu-ray and your HD streams".
I'm not saying you intended this, but you're thinking is very linear and you need to change your mindset on BD players playing netflix... they CAN count on blu-ray to make the sale, but for those who want to grab an HD show, or a quick HD rental, now they have that option...
As for me (and not saying i'm the entire BD market)... i'll buy the must own BD movies, while i may use the HD netflix to grab a movie to plan ahead of my impulses for entertainment value.
You're right.... DVD players didn't have this... your thinking = too linear / dated... break the mold my brutha :)
