People want backward compatibility, that is why we have products which feature this such as VCR/DVD combo player, hi-fi's with cassettes playable and so on. Would people be happy if the PS3 was not compatible with normal DVDs? No ofcourse not.
Most people do not move into new technology quickly so many are unwilling to let go of their older products since that still work for them.
