* You are an audio/video junkie
* You are a gadget junkie
* You have money to burn
Back catalogs on blue ray are limited and new releases are overpriced
Sure the odd thing looks really amazing in High Def, but is it really worth all the large extra cost? Not really
And seems many people are coming to same conclusion, even though Blue ray just wiped out the other format it's sales are down
