This is classic marketing.

Revenues are always going to make an expensive product look good next to its cheaper counterpart.

The fact this is a dollar for dollar POS comparison should be made clear on the chart.

Its the most favorable comparison to make for BLu Ray

I call foul. The chart is a marketing gimmick.

 


It would have shown a bit of sensibility on ur part if u had shown some hard figures that what is the percentage profit is in these revenue for DVD vs Blu Ray.. I am also very interested in knowing it...

With 42% revenue on new action films coming from Blu Ray in the latest week, i m sure the Hollywood companies are more interested where they can earn larger chunk of profit...

I m sure Blu Ray is expensive to make but so is every new technology and that is reason companies charge a premium for it from the early adopters but over time this vanishes n then the prices go down n the technology becomes mainstream. I havent seen a different cycle so far in any industry. I see Blu ray following the same pattern.

I have seen people rather teacher who denounce CD n DVD on computer n they still have usable floppies n they have conspiracy theories n doom prediction for lot of things. I m hoping u r not one of them.

Noobie in relation to your first statement.

I acknowledge BLu Rays position I am just anti the constant bleating and mis represenatation by any source.

Fact is, producing a graph without proper reference is poor at best, suspicious at worst.

It grinds my gears. It would as much if it was two cars being compared unfairly, as it does when its Blu Ray and DVD.

I agree totally on your second and third paragraph I just dont understand why you bring it up as both fail to address my concerns in any way.

I honestly don't understand your last paragraph. Could you elaborate ?
