I don't expect any noticable or at least trackable increase in BR sales due to the X1 using the format. There are maybe a half dozen movies per year that I consider worth owning on disc. If BluRay discs were cheaper I might buy more. Not sure if that's typical.

Honestly I would rather play even a fairly good game than watch an excellent movie and those are few and far between. The price per hour of entertainment is hugely tilted towards games especially the rpgs I spend most of my time with.

There's a ton of 8-10$ BR movies avaible. Terminator 1 is 6$ on amazon, right now.

Not just old movies, plenty 2012 movies are sub $10. Renting a digital copy for $6.99 that has to be watched in 48 hours sucks in comparison, and digital prices for buying are usually $17 to $24, with hardly any promotions.
