Blu-ray to Outsell DVD by 2012

The sale of high definition discs in 2007 leads us to believe it will surpass DVD sales in 2012

The report found that sales of nearly 9 million high-definition discs in 2007 generated more than $260 million in consumer spending.

This prediction may be correct if the equation contains price reductions of Blu-ray hardware and content, as happened with standard DVD. Standard DVD did not have to compete with things like Netflix or Apple TV though.

Only time will tell...
