The significant difference between the DVD in PS2 and Blu-Ray in PS3 was that the DVD was an already established market and many people did not yet have their own DVD player, it was a win win. Blu-Ray however is a market Sony and their constituates are trying to create for the 10% of the consumer market who has HD TVs. PS2 was the ideal trendsetter of Reverse Compatibility, the Ps3 needs fucking adaptors to play PS1 or Ps2 games and even then isn't 100% reverse compatible, and in Europe, they took the chip out altogether.
