I hope not...Can't stand blu ray films (unless it's animation). I don't see the attraction of removing a film's texture and making it look like a cheap daytime soap opera.
I'm guessing the hard drive will be huge enough to allow for the option of direct downloading more than just a few games/movies so physical discs will be less of an option for me.

Out of all arguments against blu-ray this is the most misinformed I've ever read, bravo.

He probably owns an LCD or LED

No, duh everyone that post here does so by using a LCD or LED screen.  Anyway plasma is way overrated and its pretty much a dying technology since everybody is moving away from it. 

I can see why you'd say a technology that is cheaper and generally gives you a better picture quality is over rated. 

The truth is that its still dying Panasonic is the only big player left when it comes to plasma televisions and they are in deep financial trouble if it was such a great product they would make money.  Also how exactly does it offer better picture quality when all the next gen sets that offer better then 1080p are not based on plasma technology.
