Feeling blue about bluray

At one time bluray was supposed to take over. The HD movie formats would kill the DVD, but instead here we are in 2008 and we see that few bluray burners are selling, few big plasma television sets are selling, and few bluray movies are being bought. At Office Depot a single blank bluray disk costs $25, but for $9.95 you can buy a spindle with 100 DVDs, that less than a dime a disk.

This will be a blue Christmas for bluray, Sony again manages to pull defeat from the jaws of victory with an overpriced format. Due to the current economic crisis people are not willing to spend big bucks on fancy expensive electronics that offer slightly better resolution.
