They could raise prices on SD DVDs by 50 cents and cut BD movie prices $2.00 on new releases, and $5.00 on catalog BD releases and still end up with more revenue and still give incentives to move to BD.

In this economy I do not think those cuts will be enough on the BD side, but it would still allow increased revenue, promote the advance of BD, and help secure the future revenue stream and get more people off the fence IMO.
