Is X1 forcing Kinect on us any different than PS3 forcing Bluray on us?

I don't see how it follows that people hate bluray. The PS3 has been twice the price of the PS2 for the life of the console. Do people hate something about Ferraris because they sell less than Fords? They just have a different target market. The fact that more people bought a console with bluray rather than a cheaper one with DVD (but is similar in most other ways) seems to show that people like bluray.

 

No, I'm not saying people hate Bluray, I'm saying they hated the price that came with it. Espeically if you didn't really want Bluray.

I'm sure some people did. They shifted markets by releasing a console that cost twice as much, so some would resent bluray for this. But more prefered it to DVD given the sales.
