What's the point of spending anything for a DVD player that might be obsolete in 2 years. There is no way I'd even consider a Blu-Ray right now. If Sony agreed to cross licence their discs on both formats, I'd encourage people to upgrade, but until the studios are willing to guarantee that consumers won't be left with bad hardware, I see no reason for anyone to make the upgrade. If Sony is serious about wanting to see Blu-Ray take off, they'd let consumers decide which product was superior, instead of making them choose between formats.
