Interesting...I don't buy that many DVDs anymore.

I only buy movies I really (REALLY) love. I rent the rest.

I don't have a player yet (soon) but I haven't bought a film on DVD if it was also available or coming out on BD relatively soon. Enough older movies and specialty items are coming out now on BD that the improved PQ is worth it to me.

I own three BDs: The Searchers, Master & Commander, and A Midsummer Nights Dream (Balanchine ballet). Criterion is now releasing on BD, so that's another plus in the formats favor. LOTR is probably coming out on BD in late 09 BTW. They're working on it now.

These are on my BD wish list.
