The only Blu-ray players in the $150 - $200 bracket are no-name junk heaps or small numbers of old dead lines being cleared (ie the S300 Sony or the BDP1400 Samsung).
That's not exactly a like-for-like comparison with a current $50 - $75 DVD player.
You can ignore that & go off and rant about Blu-ray's benefits if you like but when the majority, by far, that do have an HD TV have a small HD TV with a 720p resolution (as EngadgetHD confirmed here in a recent report) it's not quite the leap you so obviously want it to be to.
