“The economy is the biggest challenge, because there are just so many pieces to the Blu-ray puzzle that consumers face,” Disney’s general manager of domestic home-entertainment Lori MacPherson stated. “You need the high-definition television set, you need the player, you need the cables, you need the software.”
Sony also admitted at the gathering that it might reconsider its current pricing policies – though not until after Christmas. Sony VP of business development Rich Marty added: “We're all constantly looking at (disc) pricing. What it amounts to is that we'll wait until after the fourth quarter and see how it goes.”
