Again, you are comparing apples to oranges. Why not compare sales of a $500 stereo to a $500 DVD player? Your comparisons are pretty dumb at best.

Look, have you taken any economics classes? They compare LIKE to LIKE. That means the same kind of unit with the same kind of unit. Economics 101 also has something called supply and demand, which seems to have blown over you. When the price goes down, the demand curve shifts to the left, and the quantity demanded goes up.

 You're saying that the price of an HD-DVD player is not comparable to the price of a blu-ray player? Both players play high capacity 5-inch optical discs, with high definition film content. Or are you comparing the PS3 20Gb, which still had all those things?

 The thing is you haven't prove it is even likely for a $500 blu-ray player to have a spike in sales over HD-DVD. That's the thing. You are claiming a $500 system will push blu-ray over the top, when HD-DVD has $300-$400 systems.
