"Blu-Ray, if it survives, will remain n niche market (similar to the same ones that still buy CDs over MP3s) but in the case of videos there are much stronger forces working together to make this expand at rapid rate. As we see studios are simply more willing to support digital downloads then even Blu-Ray."
I hate to burst your bubble, Nfinity, but CD's aren't a niche market. MP3's are lossy. Of course, many people were, have been, and are going to be taken in by Apple's iTunes (myself included) and their DRM-protected AAC songs that will only play on an iPod. Try hooking your iPod up to a good stereo and see how great (or not so great in this case) it sounds. I guess if you are listening to a No High No Lows Gotta Be Bose SoundDock, maybe your iPod sounds all right, though.
