Blu-ray has progressed more in 2 years than LaserDisc in a decade

Thanks for the stats. It's very much appreciated to get some real facts without any spin.

It will definitely hit mainstream status in a while. Once recording capabilities are fully tapped outside of Japan (I live here and it's a huge market) and two of the three consoles (PS4 and Xbox 720) have it, the format will not go anywhere. Yes, I do think Xbox 720 will have a BD drive standard, whether it goes against MS ideals or not.
