Blu Rays probably cost less than 25 cents more to make than their DVD counterparts at the manufacturing level. I would assume that the mastering process cost per movie is doubled as they have to master a DVD version(video, 5.1 sound, DVD extras) and BR version (video,7.1 sound and BR extras).

It doesn't seem to be enough to warrant the price difference at the consumer level.

Most new technologies feel the need to pay off early consumers by screwing them as much as possible. DVD did the same thing.

Yeah, the problem is that Blu Ray is not seen as the leap over DVD, that DVD was over VHS.
