Blu-Ray sales tank for good reasons

Sony destroying their console business to win, over the about as horrible HD-DVD format, didn't change the fact that Blu-Ray as a platform sucks serious ass.

And after all the Sony fanboy hype, despite winning the format war at the cost of their console biz, sales of BD media and players are down this year.

Hope it was worth going from 1st to 3rd in the game console biz dumbasses!

Man you are obtuse. BR disc sales are UP not down. I'd like to see your info showing thery are down. Once again the 3rd place crap is just that crap. And even so money from blu-ray will be worth more than if the PS3 had gone the 360 and Wii route and put out gimped systems.

just admit you wasted your money on HD-DVD and you are mad.

LOL, No, I wasted money on 2 PS3's and I'm mad. I'm beyond pissed with GTAIV (despite reinstalling 2X) crashing on one of my consoles and am disappointed with the poor selection of titles in general just as I am still disappointed with the PSP library.

Yep, we will excuse BD problems because anyone who dares to criticize the all-perfect Sony must be doing so because they're a secret operative for Redmond who is crying over the XBOX 360's lonely HD-DVD player.

There is no money for Sony in BD because people are staying away from overpriced media and Nintendo is kicking Sony's ass in the console biz.

Sony must fix their buggy hardware and drop the price of players and media if BD is to have ANY hope of being successful.

As I said you are a hater. I'm done talking to you since you REFUSE to look at anything objectively and with intelligence and reason. You spout OPINIONS and try to act like that are FACTS. Just like the idiot that wrote that article. I state FATCS. By the way that guy( he's British ) says Americans are stupid. I guess you agree with him on that.

Your excuse making for Sony isn't doing them any favors.

I objectively criticize what I see are deficiencies in these Sony products from the perspective of an OWNER. And according to you, only "haters" of Sony point out these problems. It doesn't matter who many Sony products they own, or their long history of buying Sony products. No one is ever permitted to speak ill of the ever-perfect Sony.

And yes, Americans are pretty damn stupid. You only need to see who they elect to verify that is true.

So what is next? Only "haters" can criticize Microsoft activation practices, RIAA/MPAA blackmailing, Comcast's phantom caps and traffic shaping or critique anything in the world? So be it.

I'm a 2 PS1, 3 PS2, 1 PSP and 2 PS3 Sony owner (hell I had Beta, DAT and MiniDisc too) and a proud critic of deficiencies hater.

If Sony wants to have ANY success with BD, they need to drop the prices and fix the problems. Until then, the author is absolutely correct that people will choose to stil with upscaled DVD's that provide near the same quality and a fraction of the price.

Meanwhile the quicker you fanboys, no matter what your brand loyalty is, realize there is no such thing as a perfect product, the quicker you can take off those blinders you all wear.

Anyone else see the irony in this statement? Bash Sony "faults" yet then tell others not to get upset because every product has flaws.

I'm not sure who you are talking to because I'm certianly not a fanboy. Once again you REFUSE to admit the article is biased. You also hate America since you also REFUSE to disagree with his "Americans are stupid" rant. Until that happens I think I'll just ingore your ignorant rantings I have better things to do. Next time lsiten to LOGIC. See ya.

Who gives a crap if it's biased? It doesn't make anything said any less true.

So yes, bash EVERY product for it's faults and you fanboys should stop defending the faults or making excuses for them.

Perhaps if more people complained about the faults, Sony would actually get off their ass and fix them.
