Equally for both. Although, it's mostly been used for blu-ray, since the good games don't start coming out until this fall.

BD player. PS3 video games are of not much value to me since after 15 minutes of playing and my hands hurt. Four hours of playing with the 360 controller and my hands feel better than 15 minutes with the PS3 controller.

BD player, PS3 does not have any games I like as of yet.

I have a Region B Panny player so I bought a Region A PS3 so I can play BDs from just about anywhere. Main other reason is to use it as a media hub. I use it equally as BD player and Media hub to stream pictures and videos from my PC.

When I originally bought my PS3 it was for gaming. After watching my first BD though I was hooked. To be honest, I should have voted for I ONLY care about the video games. Blu-ray is of no value to me ,as that was my state of mind at the time of purchase, but I do value blu-ray and gaming equally now so I voted for it.

I think the majority of PS3 owners bought it purely for gaming because most have not had the Blu-ray experience. I for one was introduced to the Blu-ray experience through my PS3. I'm not trying to say that PS3 owners aren't interested in Blu-ray, I am merely saying that Blu-ray is not the reason most will buy a PS3. Once they try it as a Blu-ray player though, they will be hooked, like me.
