With around 2.5 Million BD SALs and 6.5 Million PS3's, I think it's highly unlikely the few big hits on BD like "Iron Man" are selling mostly to SAL owners. The average sell rate probably represents the SAL owners and the big hits probably represent increased interest from SAL owners and a chunk of PS3 owners--especially when you look at what films are hits.

SALs should start to outnumber PS3's (as far as BD disc sales) now that SALs are significantly cheaper than the PS3, but it hasn't happened yet.
