Dreaming of the next Xbox disc format... Literally

No.

The reason I say this is because their next console will HAVE TO play Blu-Ray discs. If Blu-Ray takes off and they don't include it, the console will fail. Considering the fact that their next console and Sony's should theoretically release around the same price, if Blu-Ray is widely accepted and the next XBOX doesn't include it, a lot of people will buy a PS4 over the 720 just because of that feature. As many people have said in the past, the gaming experience is much the same. By time they come out, there will not be a sizeable difference between PSN and Live, so the choice will be more based on features.

I honestly think if the next XBOX doesn't support Blu-Ray, if Blu-Ray becomes vastly popular by then (which it has PLENTY of time to, because we're still talking 4 years off), the console will fail.

I don't follow you.
