And you can picture your grandma purchasing an HDTV w/ Blu Ray player?? |
Lol, they already have an HDTV...and were actually talking about getting a blu-ray player, but not until the price drops a little. My parents too.
But anyhow, I see your point, but it takes a lot more "tech savvy" person to download than to put a blu-ray in a player.
An example, my three year old nephew already knows how to put in a dvd and put the tv on the right station. Can you picture a 3 year old downloading and burning movies? Of course a 3 year old won't be buying blu-ray players, but the same applies to everyone--it's more simple to use physical media--AT THIS TIME.
I do think downloading media has a future...but it won't kill blu-ray...in fact, I don't think downloads will dominate for at least 10 years.
I think the real battle for blu-ray is against dvd, not downloads.
