Not to mention that any TV can benefit from DVD, whereas only HDTV's will benefit from Blu-ray.
Given the limited window of 'possible' market penetration, the format war, and the relatively high price in a troubled economy. I'd say Blu-ray is thriving right now.

I wouldn't say thriving. The numbers posted are actually pretty similar to DVD when it first hit. The only difference is that DVD only had one format to compete with, blu ray has several. I honestly don't think blu ray is going anywhere soon, methinks it will go the way of laser disk.
