This actually seems plausible, if not a little bit on the conservative side. If memory serves, it took DVD a number of years before it finally caught up to VHS in terms of sales and rentals.
DVD's overtook VHS in terms of US sales in 2003... 6 years after their introduction in 1997.
2 years after the first DVD players were introduced the cheapest ones were still 350 dollars (over $450 dollars in 2008 money). Players were not full featured (no progressive scan, some had no component out, etc). We are right at 2 years into Blu-ray's rollout. Cheap players are 300-400 dollars. They are not full featured yet either.

Ok, that seems like a well duh statement, what I mean is that it seems on par with the amount of time that DVD took to catch up with VHS.

Sounds familiar, huh?
