When success has been pried from their cold, dead fingers.

True. So, when will that be? Just today, I read someone saying they predict Blu-ray will be a failure.

Replying breaks this page. It makes me cry.

don't cry! this is awesome!

I can't see Blu-Ray being as pervasive as DVD. I think that in the end, digital distribution will undercut Blu-Ray's market saturation.

So, Sony's scored sort of a Pyrrhic victory in their fight with HD-DVD. Given how much they've spent on the format, I can't imagine they're going to make their money back.

That said, when Blu-Ray won the format war, there was a distinct uptick in PS3 sales. Just like when the PS2 came out, and DVD drove initial PS2 sales, Blu-Ray may just sll enough to jumpstart the PS3. God knows the games don't do that yet (with a small number of notable exceptions (MGS4 for some, Uncharted)).

I just have to say, Add this to the list of People who are pissed at Sony.
Where just waiting for Panasonic, Netflix, and (Someone Else I can not remember) to follow and admit it to the public.
