Thanks for telling the real side of the story. The fact that Blu-ray has a paltry 3% of the market after three years is pathetic. The only way a post-DVD physical HD format was going to catch on was if it was cheap and plentiful almost right from the beginning. HD-DVD had a chance, but Sony and the Blu-ray Disc Association bought all the studios out. Unfortunately, this was only done with the mindset that they would overcharge for the next 3-4 years, and make a lot of money, which is EXACTLY the set of events that would cause the next format to be a failure.
The market is done with physical discs. DVDs work fine for most people now, and as soon as Hollywood pulls its collective head out of its collective ass, and moves to a digital downloading/streaming system, people will be ready to move on. Blu-ray's snail-pace adoption rate is proof enough that all of the above is the truth.
