These companies that can't cater for the market are surely going to disappear soon then.

If you sell cars and know the majority of your customers want a Ferrari (Bd) then they aren't going to buy the Micra (dvd) on offer are they.

Which is just what you said previously. Plenty of films you'd like from these companies but you don't bother as they aren't on blu, meaning it doesn't make good business sense as i alluded to.

Either that or you seriously over estimate the sales of blu against dvd.
