Is it just me, or are the BluRay titles in Australia distinctly underwhelming?

Like you, I'm waiting for 2nd (or 3rd generation) machines at around the A$500 price point. I didn't buy my first DVD player until 2 years after release, by which time there were plenty of titles and lots of player choices.

But everytime I stop by at JB Hi-Fi, the titles seem, well, lacklustre.

I suspect the studios will all support BluRay now that HD-DVD AACS has been bypassed (a beta version of AnyDVD HD was released on Valentine's Day).

BluRay is equally vulnerable, but has an extra degree of protection which the studios can turn on in future titles.
