I think Blu-Ray releases really need to come down in price. Everyone I know, even with HDTVs, still buys more DVDs than Blu-Rays. Seeing as Blu-Rays are still so expensive, I haven't bought a film in a while (I'm not going to buy DVD just to repurchase when Blu-Ray comes down in price).

Best buy just in their weekly ad had a few Blu-rays for $17,  a few were only a couple weeks old.  Also  most new releases are only about $22 at Best Buy,   Which is what DVD new releases used to beabout 3 years ago.   So they are cheap.  

Blu-Rays are still pretty damn expensive here (Ireland). I know those graphs are for the US, but I doubt the scenario in terms of marketshare could be that much different here. Last time I was in HMV (which is the closest place to me with a large selection), they will still €30 or so, easily €10-20 more expensive that DVDs. Most new release DVDs seem to come out for €15.99-€19.99, but there are some cheaper ones and they drop in price much quicker.
