I don't see that happening any time soon.

IP's are constricting bandwidth right now, not increasing it. If it were going in the opposite direction, I might agree with you.

It's a given that prices will fall and entice people to buy. Like Dare said, it's obvious and would apply to the competition as well.
Prices will fall eventually, but right now VoD costs about the same amount to rent as going to the store and picking up a BD {depending on your area} and ownership options for High Def are few and far between.

True, but PS3 sales have been hurt by Blu-ray overall, and now it must compete with more expensive components, which gives the edge to MS in the future as well.
Depending on how you look at it. They've managed to wrangle the price down by about 50% over the course of the last 2 years, I can't see the price to build it going up either.

Yes, it lowers it even further.
*LOL* True enough.
