| selnor said: Noone really cares for Blu Ray here. And I can go into HMV, supermarkets etc without even seeing a BluRay on store shelves. Just DVD's. BluRay prices are still the same as 4 years ago. £20-£30. It is struggling big here. More people definately have adopted downloads here. It's evident by the lack of BluRay shelf space. |
Quintessential selnor post - declares that Blu-ray is a failure/doomed format based on what he likes to think is the case.
'You can't go into a single HMV in the country and find Blu-rays on shelves' - that is an outright lie for starters.
And you lose even more credibility by suggesting you can't find Blu-rays in supermarkets (yet another bullshit claim as you can hardly speak for all supermarkets, and I can just as easily point out that in my local Sainsburys they have a whole section to themselves in the games&films aisle) - I could equally suggest that because I can't find iPods in WHSmith that Apple's flagship technology is doomed in the UK. Except I wouldn't. Because that's not how to construct a decent argument.
As has been pointed out already, the BSAC have shown that Blu-rays convincingly defeated digital downloads in 2009, and the margin is only going to increase in 2010.
