Although Spain is not the model that best reflects the trend, in Europe on Blu-Ray continues at good pace. Futuresource consultant, has been dated to the time when Blu-Ray will be greater and will be considered by consumers as a technology as usual and not surprising: 2010 will be the time that this high definition format, in issues such as disk players, become a mature technology.
By the end of that year players are expected to stabilize its price around 100 euros or less, a very attractive value if accompanied by a reduction in the price of records, which is also expected to fall to present levels of the DVD. In fact, it is now common to find in many shops mainly physical and online, offers very interesting to start or strengthen our collection of Blu-Ray.
Regarding the share of Blu-Ray penetration in European homes, this year is scheduled to end with an impressive 10%, yes, with the participation of the Sony PS3 console, very important part of that percentage. In fact, for the coming year, an estimated half the players sold are Sony consoles.
Personally I still think that before then the downloads will eat completely physical format, but must be solved before many issues, including bandwidth.
