blu ray is doing better than dvd was :p

except... it isn't.

It's doing worse.

Despite having a larger market to sell to.

 

It's doing better at it's stage in life. Concidering the way smaller market (hdtv's vs normal tvs. Everyone had normal tvs. Not everyone has hdtvs)

 

 

No it's not.  Disc adoption is way below still... the movie market is larger.

But Blu-ray market is HD-TV owners and that market is smaller, which kinda kills your argument...

Is it?  I thought it was everybody.  Since they want blu-ray to replace DVD.  Can't replace DVD if you only target HD owners... they own what?  33% of the TVs in america at least?

Evens so... HD disc sales < 1/3rd DVD sales at this point... or at least were the last time the BDA released numbers... and that was back when Blu-ray was doing amazing before the sony cut all their blu-ray fortcasts.

Also this still ignores the MASSIVE growth in the industry... that has more the doubled, and possible trippled since DVDs inception.
