I expect TDK to get the record for BD sales and I think so doesn't everyone else. I am fairly sure it will, but who knows what Warner has projected for it on BD or if it will meet that expectation, but I would be outright SHOCKED if it didn't break all records myself.

I am surprised that Warner said this publicly and I think it was a warning to other studios myself.

Personally I think BD is coming along great from a hardware perspective, and I never thought BD players would be this cheap so I tip my hat to the CE companies doing what is necessary for BD to be a success. I just wish the studios would NOW follow suit.
