Default Download or buy a disc?

I've read several articles that suggest the format war is all for nought, that people will start downloading movies to watch, instead of buying them on disc.
Assuming you can record the downloads, does anyone think it will hurt Blu-Ray in the future?
I would have to think the studios would not like this...download..and record, for $3.99 (approximate price)
From my understanding, studios make a good bit of money from DVD sales, after the theater run. In fact, I've read as much as 40% of overall revenue (at least in the USA) comes from DVD sales.
I can't believe download and record is the way of the future.
Possibly, this could put pressure on pricing, so Blu-Rays could be even cheaper. There is trememdous profit potential in selling DVDs, and soon to be in Blu-Ray, once there is a larger established base of Blu-Ray owners.
