Everyone seems to go back to the betamax vs. vhs on this. I can see the resemblece sorta. The blu ray alone is not what is going to hurt the ps3, the most anyway. Even if blu ray does take off, $600 is a lot of money to spend on a game system. I talk to a lot of people on msn and other places about this and the price point seems to keep coming up more than the blu ray deal.

This is why I like MS having the hd addon. It is not for games. Just movies. Dont get me wrong though, blu ray discs can hold more. It would have been nice if sony offered the blu ray as an option and then kept the dvd as the main drive in the rig. This would bring the cost of the system and games down to about what the 360 is.

So in my opinion, the ps3 should have 2 price points, one without the blu ray for 400 and one with 600. This would have eliminated a lot of crap
