[S.T.A.G.E.]

Except that's like saying a PS3 that sells for $5 would have 99% of the market. I know what you're trying to say, but if its a little from both sides.

It's like Mercedes Benz, they charge a premium for their product because they have a high perceived value, but at the end of the day, if you can't afford one, then it doesn't matter how much value it has, you simply can't afford it.

The flip side of the argument is "they don't need to sell a Mercedes Benz for cheap."  They don't sell like a low-end Honda, but with the price-point they don't need to.

Not that I disagree with you.  On the contrary, your argument is spot on.  I just think Sony should leave the price where it is unless they start bleeding market share to 360 in buckets.

 

 

They have been bleeding marketshare. As Sony plummets, Blu Ray sales go up.
