and blu-ray hasn't, imo, had any huge titles until recently, and in the coming weeks.

I'm not blaming the PS3. I think its because of the PS3 that blu-ray has a 2:1 lead. Without the PS3, I think things would be quite different. Equal or HD DVD in the lead.

I just think blu-ray should have taken a bigger lead and the effect of the PS3 hasn't continued. It blossomed when it was released and has simply helped to maintain the ratio, but not increase it at all.

All I know for sure is the next 2 months are going to be really interesting!
