Get ready for excruitiatingly(sp?) long load times because BR is half the speed of DVD9. Additionally, you may see higher priced games as well since it takes more resources for "12 gigs of compressed level data"... While sony may be willing to cover the cost to hype BR, the majority of 3rd parties won't. The majority of times it will be used for HD cutscenes...
