Which presupposes the idea that only videophiles are picking up BR. That's not the case, though. What we are seeing is stand-alone BR player sales up over 50% yoy in the midst of a deep recession. If it were just the videophile market going after BR, then sales would not be up so dramatically. The videophiles have already bought their BR players, and the general public is now going after them in greater numbers despite not necessarily having the money to afford such products in such a bad economy.

I agree. I have said before that I see Blu-Ray surpassing DVD within a fairly rapid timeframe.

My only point is that this is because Joe Average has opted to adopt this format rather than reject it. Videophiles did not do this.
