The main problem with Blu Ray is they don't do enough to differentiate themselves to DVDs. In other words, people do not see incentive or improvement enough to go out and buy a whole new player to play this new form of media. Everyone, and I do mean EVERYONE I've talked to who doesn't know a lot about tech has asked me, "What is blu ray?" or "what does it do different from DVD?"

That and the backwords compatability... you'll have some people rebuying their media, which was another big profit motivator behind the move to DVD... but not as much.

There really isn't anywhere near the profit motivators and profits to be made for the Blu-Ray Assosiation as their was for the DVD Forum.

Of course not, when something costs 2.50 to make plus mastering and they sell it for $40-50 for the first year,  its tough to compete with that kind of profitability
