I wouldn't be surprised if I contributed hugely to that increase

Just kidding. Maybe only 1% is me.

I have probably bought 1000% increase in BD over last year. 2009 was the year that BD pricing got "real". In the U.S. at least, where I get almost all my BD.

In Canada, we are where the U.S. was last year re the DVD/BD price differential. The difference is DVD is still very profitable in Canada, long after a decline in the U.S., so BD doesn't have to fill a missing profit niche here. Yet. Like many others have said, when a BD is "appropriate" for the title, if the DVD/BD price diff is too much, then I just don't buy either. The studios have tweaked to this behavior I think.
