Is PS3 killing the standalone Blu-ray player?

[ameratsu]

Anyone in the market who does a little research or even gets reasonable guidance on the matter will choose a PS3 over a stand alone blu ray player. (for the time being of course)

I do have my doubts of how great blu-ray will ever become. While I doubt it will fade quickly into irrelevance like the UMD did, I think it will struggle until the vast majority of people have a tv and sound system capable of making them care... and even then, who knows?
