This will take years for the Blu to overtake the market. Guess at least 3-4 years in the USA, 5-6 years in Europe. Don't know about japan.

 

Japan is much farther ahead in the Blu-ray vs DVD market. Its like 70/30 there. The EU its like 85/15. It is only America that is going to take forever due to the poor state of our economy.

 

Do you have a source for that?

 

Next week, with the release of 1408 and The Mist by Weinstein will mark the 1st time that all Major and Mini Major studios have released at least one Blu Ray movie, it's gonna take a while, but DVD will be phased out by Blu Ray and downloads will also become mainstream (though I believe most people will prefer owning the physical copy, downloads have a very good chance as an alternative for movie rentals).
