Sales of Blu-ray Discs in the UK reached a mere 462,500 in November according to research firm Futuresource, a 165% increase over October 2008 but still far, far less than DVD over the same period. Sales of Blu-ray disc players are expected to tripled across Europe and this exclude Sony PS3 consoles. But these figures hide a nasty truth. People are yet to be educated as to the advantages of Blu-ray over DVD. And there's an even nastier boogie man on the horizon : video downloads/streaming.
