Edit; @ tuoyo; there weren't a whole lot of PS2's in 1999...

I don't know how long DVD was out before PS2 was released.  From this graph I can safely assume PS2 was not out by then.  However, if BD will either never make a comparison for a time frame which caught the release of PS2 (e.g comparing DVD sales after 5 years with BD sales after 5 years) or they will do the comparison but include PS3 sales and exclude PS2 sales. 

I don't see how someone can use this graph to argue that BD is doing better than DVD at the same stage of their respective lives when PS3 has been out for most of that period and PS2 was not out at all. 

 

Not too familiar with the PR business now are ya.  They show what shows them kicking butt in.  If in 2 years this graph is not in their favor they will throw out some new graph like DVD total REVENUE vs. Blu ray REVENUE or something.

 

 

Or like in sports makes up some obscure requirements so they can make some new record.  Like first person since 1954 to score a touchdown on offense and defense on 4 different teams while having the flu.  You know they could be like the adaption rate is much higher between Blu Ray players and HDTV's than DVD was with HDTV's at the time or something.
