This kind of thinking boggles my mind.

So someone goes out and pays $3,000 for a TV and $30-40 per movie.....yet to pay $200 more one time to get a good player is suddenly going to break their bank?

It's simple actually....if you can afford a highdef TV then the price difference of Bluray and HD is insignficant right now. When TV's start dropping in price considerably, that's when it'll be more important to have that key $100-$150 players. At least that's the way I see it.
