Actual numbers say otherwise to this article.The introduction of BR in Asia is quite fast and in Europe its 6 times faster that what DVD was.

vs DVD PLAYERS.

Disc consumption is something different all together. With disc sales being well below US Disc sales. Combined they don't equal what DVDs sold in the US alone at this point.

Worldwide combined numbers likely don't match DVD disc sales at this point unless asia accounts for 70%+ of all blu-ray disc sales.

False ,the number I found (the link is in the DVD vs BR thread) was about disc consumption.In Europe the BR is taking off faster that what DVD did.Just hanging around in any movies section in any shop you can see a healthy BR stand.

 Now if you are going to say things like "combined US and EU BR sales dont equal DVD sales in US alone 2 years and a half after its introduction(so by 1998)" then back them up.
