I still think this is way off tbh. People want to own the product. You may want to take a DVD to your friends house etc etc.

I just dont see digital distribution taking off in the way they would like it to for a long time.

EDIT** Dont know about the rest of the world but it seems Blu-ray is not doing badley over here in the UK.

The Blu-ray message is steadily creeping in consumer conscience, it seems. Why? Because sales of Blu-ray films in the UK rose by almost 400 per cent last month, compared to the same period in 2007.

According to figures from industry body the British Video Association (BVA), almost 1.5m Blu-ray films were sold in the UK during December 2008. Batman flick The Dark Knight took the top spot, with 281,000 copies sold during its first three weeks on sale in Blighty.

Times are tough all over right now, but times are especially tough at Sony. They've only just announced plans to axe thousands of employees, and already The Times reckon things are about to get worse.

While Sony are all "no we're not" on the speculation/leak, The Times insist that next month, Sony will not only announce the closure of several factories in Japan, but will go so far as to shut down some of their "major divisions".
