So, while I appreciate the concept of pigs developing wings and learning to fly, I was looking for people's thoughts on the subject of what Apple's reasoning might be to not include Blu-ray in their new hardware offerings this late in the game.

You asked what the chance was of a Mac with Blu-Ray by year's end. It seems like he give you a pretty clear opinion on the matter.

As for why, ask Apple. Just don't expect the answer to be the truth.
