The cost of the subcomponents to do so are probably a few dollars difference at best. You are paying for the "functional ability" of the player, and less the cost of the actual hardware. Now, if someone has different info, I would like to know.

Ever notice how a 1GB ipod-type device is one price and the 2GB version is almost 100 bucks more? The cost difference in production is nominal at best. Same thing here for our players.

The idea of blu-ray is to "keep moving forward" (RE:Meet the Robinsons), not going backwards. If that were the case why not a player that supports only 720p?

Spider, you never got back to us on that blu-bloods t-shirt. Fer shame.
