Price is absolutly one reason. I have both a PS3 and an HD TV. What I don't have is $30.00 a disk to buy them.
Where are these $30 blu-rays?

here are new movies on blu-ray

Gran Torino (With BD-Live + Digital Copy) (Widescreen) $24.86

Twilight $23.86

Taken (Blu-ray) (2-Disc) (Extended Cut With Digital Copy) $22.86

Watchmen: Director's Cut (2-Disc Special Edition) (With BD Live + Digital Copy) $24.86

Fast & Furious: Special Edition (Blu-ray With BD-Live) (2-Disc) $24.86

Knowing $23.86

Paul Blart: Mall Cop (2-Disc) (With Digital Copy & BD-Live) (Blu-ray) $23.86

Valkyrie (With Digital Copy) $24.96

Sorry I can't find a blu-ray movie for over $25. And most of those listed also come with a digital copy.
Oh my god those are all hollywood films with many being horrible. Sorry but until the market for blu-ray includes foreign films too forget about blu-ray.
A) foreign films were enver specified

B) "quality" was never specified and how one would quantify that is impossible anyways.

All that was mentioned was "I won't buy blu-rays because they are $30" and I've proven there are no $30 blu-rays. there WERE which must mean prices are dropping liek they did with DVDs and VHS. So if people would quit bitching and let the market take it's course you'll get you blu-rays priced the same as DVDs before too long. Hell it took a decade and a half for a new movie on VHS to be under $20. Less than 18 months removed from the end of the format war and you expect $5 blu-rays.
