It stands to reason Blu Ray will replace DVD. As player prices drop and people move from SD to HD, the choice of what player to go with the new TV is a no-brainer. You don't even have to toss out the DVD collection as with VHS because every BD player will support DVD playback.
There is an assumption of course that studios won't be too greedy with their content. People *will* buy Blu Ray discs if they only cost a little more than the equivalent DVD. They *won't* buy them if studios try to fleece them. After all, let's be honest here - HD is great but I expect most people will stump with SD if the cost of disks is prohibitive.
