Studios should give us what we want!

I'm tired of people complaining about the lack of titles in Blu-ray. Please moderators, close this thread.
How can you complain when there are so many anticipated titles announced:

Fool's Gold
Coyote Ugly
Mariah Carey: The Adventures Of Mimi

So what the hell are you complaining about?

"Coyote Ugly" is a release I'm really looking forward to (yes, mine hasn't shipped yet as I bundled it with another title not yet released).

Just remember, what may not be "anticipated" by you, might be anticipated by others.

So the companies have been through this before. But they only make money through sales, so the masses drive what they will produce. Obviously everyone in this forum wants more Blu, but we are far from the majority. If only 30% of US households have an HDTV (the last number that I saw - might have increased a bit), the percentage with Blu-Ray is obviously a fraction of that number. I'm sure the offerings are a hot topic at the production companies - when they can make the financial justification to increase the titles, they will do so. The sooner, the better.

While I'd love for more smaller titles to get the spotlight, as well as Paramount, Universal, Weinstein, etc. to start releasing titles, I'm always AMAZED at how many people want more Blu-ray movies... I can't really keep up with the amount of Blu-ray movies coming out that I want. I also think it's amazing how many people fail to realize the abundance of riches that Blu-ray has already offered us compared to DVD in the same time-frame.
