Elephant in the Blu-ray room: The Economy
With this severe economic downturn, is it realistic to think that people will pay 35 dollars for a home video (blu ray).
I own over 550 DVDs, recently purchased a Playstation 3 and several blu ray movies. I don't think that blu ray can go mainstream if stores like Best Buy and Circuit City continue to sell blu rays movies for 30 and 35 dollars.
The third quarter retail numbers were horrible and it looks like people aren't going to be spending much this holiday season, because of the fears of a recession.
Blu ray prices MUST come down.
I'm talking...
DVD $15
Blu ray $20
