The percentage of returned gadgets that have nothing wrong with them.
Of the $13.8 billion worth of returned products in 2007, only 5 percent were because gadgets were actually broken, according to a 2008 study.

Why is the comment system on this site always fucking broken?
Seriously this is getting ridiculous. Half the time the comments are visible. The other half they're repeated multiple times because the website for some reason doesn't want to show that its received the comment...
Anyways regarding this news it doesn't surprise me one bit. I'm huge supporter of Bluray now but I haven't bought a Bluray player yet.
The reason being I'm waiting for the Profile 2.0 player that catches my attention and provides the best/highest quality for the amount of money I shell out.
So far theres nothing out that is Profile 2.0. Don't mention the ps3 to me because I hate sony and I hate the ps3 so I'm not going for that. I'd rather buy a STANDALONE Profile 2.0 player.
And it seems like the average consumer who may be interested in Bluray is waiting too...whether its for a drop in price or the release of the final standard players people just aren't buying them right now.
Another thing I've noticed is that most stores don't stock the current bluray players that much. My local BB only has 1 Bluray player available. All the combo ones have been gone for weeks.
Seems like there is a delay when you post a comment
Amen brother! Fix the damn comment system!!
(the rest of your post I didnt read but rock on with that too)
"so far theres nothing out that is profile 2.0. don't mention the ps3 because I hate sony"
Um... just because you hate sony doesn't mean the ps3 isn't a profile 2.0 player. It won't just dissapear if you close your eyes.
