Blu-ray Movies: Mission Impossible 3 reaches record sales!

[Sosmither]

I found this article from: Blu-ray Movies.

Blu-ray is truly a technological marvel being able to hold
around six times more information than a DVD, and close to
double more the information of a HD DVD. But, how will
consumers react to it? That has been the talk of the developers
of Blu-ray as well as eager die-hard fans of Blu-ray.

Fortunately, a peek into the future of Blu-ray was achieved
around November 10th, 2006 as record sales began to make
themselves evidence as Blu-ray movies started to become
harder and harder to find, especially Mission Impossible 3. As
soon as Mission Impossible 3 was available in Blu-ray format,
they began flying off the selves and into the homes of
thousands. A reported 20,000 to 35,000 Blu-ray Mission
Impossible 3 movies has been sold in a period of days. With
such early success, Blu-ray's future seems to be getting
brighter and brighter.

But will the transition from DVDs to Blu-ray Disc be realized?

There are hundreds of millions of DVDs out in the market and
in homes all over the world today, and to play those DVDs you
need a DVD player. So the future of Blu-ray is determined by
getting more Blu-ray players into more homes, and with the
costs of today's Blu-ray players, the probabilty of that
happening is very low.

Here comes the Sony Playstation 3

Yes, the Sony Playstation 3 is a big part of the answer. WHY?
Because the Sony Playstation 3 is a Blu-ray player. Millions of
Playstation 3s has been either pre-sold or sold already and
with the holiday season getting ever so closer, there's no telling
the how many millions of people will have a Blu-ray player.

Blu-ray has a great future!

Mission Impossible 3 is just the beginning. Though the future
looks great for Blu-ray, underestimating HD DVD can have
devastating consequences. However, consumers seems to
agree, Blu-ray is a must have.
