honestly, looking back with a totally rational view, I really cannot see how bluray "cost" PS3 the lead.
What cost them the lead was Wii's physical innovation that overshadowed PS3's format innovation(and making their motion control innovation look incredibly badly thought out), and the problem of facing a yearlong established 360 that was viewed as their equivalent as well as having to compete with the PS2 as a far cheaper alternative to a massively wider library of games. High price ensured it's continual dead last position for the past year.
However Microsoft apparently didn't stretch properly before setting off and has possibly sprained itself on RRoD, so between the support of Bluray and the lowered price, PS3 may pull up level with 360.
Either way, whether they do pull back up to 2nd or continue trailing, I really don't see how bluray cost them any of that.
