For some reason there are no weekly numbers yet.   But they have released YTD numbers.   So here they are.

Top 20 Blu-ray Disc Sales and Market Share

If these included Star Trek numbers then it would probably take the #1 spot for both.

Top 20 Sellers  (BD and DVD combined)

ok here is my view on the whole blue ray thing. the only way blue ray becomes the norm is to have teh movies released at 15-20 dollars a disc and that is a new release not a 5 year old movie which they have been releasing them still at 25. the second is the players themselves. sony is still selling theirs at about 200-300 dollars but the low end blue ray is about 130 now with the occasional 75 black friday deal roughly. it has to drop in price to even replace the current dvd sales and libraries. but with blue ray upscaling older dvd's why buy the blue ray version. it is alot like HDTV's yes yo ucant get tube tv's anymore but yet with the prices they have to come down big time before people will buy them. unless like what happend to me was my 33" tv got fried by the utility company and they blamed it on a squirell. but we survived for month till after i started school. i got my money from school and used 800 of it to buy a HDTV bundle which was tv, mount and hdbar and a 6' hdmi cable. so yeah my next purchase iwanna get is a blue ray player just cause of teh hype i have been hearing about it. but yet the only way we are getting one if it is around 100 or less. which i think will be aroudn the low end prices come jan.

On the positive side, Star Trek Blu Ray was 19.99$ the week of its release at Best Buy.
I think it's the first Blu Ray of a just recently released movie that I get for under 20$....

Well I will update you take on Blu-ray movies.   Players have officially dropped into the sub $100 range and that was months before BF even came around.  These players are even Bonus View capable.   As for the Sony Blu-ray players,  Sony has always been a more expensive brand when it comes to electronics. I dont understand why you mention Blu-ray players upscaling ability,  if you are going to buy a Blu-ray player its not for that feature.  There are cheaper payers out there that do it just as well as the Blu-ray players do.

As for the price of the movies,  they have come down as well,  most new releases are between 15-22.   Look at most of these titles,  most are under $20, and most are new releases.

I got Star Trek on BR.

Blu ray is slowly getting there

It's clear the blu ray is not going to take over anytime soon. I predict some new format not yet out will take over probably around 2012 prior to blu ray gaining 50% market share.

Its not that clear,  there has been some talk about starting to phase out DVD production for movies.  Also there really isnt any new format that will be commercially ready by 2012.  Blu-ray will probably have close to 50% marketshare by the end of 2011.

End of 2011 isn't anytime soon.

And when I say new format around 2012, that is to say it will be released then, not that it will gain wide spread adoption then...

with support from what movie studio's an what consumer electronic manuf. ?

because all of the largest CE companies and even many smaller CE companies that make optical disc player's have decided to produce Blu-Ray,

Digital Downloads are mainly for rental, not to keep and the limit on the bandwidth cap in some areas have already gone through.

so which new format are you going to say is going to be released between now an the near future that all of a sudden the main companies that make DVD's , that make DVD player's that make Movies for those technologies are all of a sudden going to drop the Blu-Ray format over the new format when they already invested billion's into the format that already is a step above DVD.

first it was:

HD DVD

than DVD upscalar's

than Digital Download's

Now Toshiba's has stated all those thing's themselves now what does Toshiba produce?

that's right Blu-Ray

the sooner people face it that its over with and done with the better!

Blu-ray is the winner, and the vast majority of the companies are all on board now.
