Well there's obviously some issues in relation to the lisencing of the Blu-ray technology , evident in the fact that the number of people allowed to manufacture a Blu-Ray player is limited dispite the technology being availible to the mass market for 2 years .
@FisyJoe "we're waiting till things settle down and Blu-ray takes off in the marketplace"
maybe you should read the whole text and not take it out of context , "we're waiting" and "Blu-Ray takes off" indicates too things ,
1 Apple isn't heavily supporting blu-ray at this moment in time likely due to the issues surrounding the lisencing of the technology , without the rights to re-produce the tehcnology businesses couldn't support Blu-Ray no matter how much they wanted to this is delaying the growth of Blu-Ray as a viable platform(not apple).
. 2 Apple has some confidence in blu-ray eventualy taking off as a viable platform , but due to lisencing issues this isn't possible.
