Warner Brothers To Cut Blu-ray Prices

Although this isnt a direct Sony news, it does impact Sony who is the God Father of Blu-ray. Warner Brothers has recently announced that they are cutting the prices of their Blu-ray movies, starting this September. Some are to be even as low as $11 (although its safe to assume thats not going to be new releases). Although no official list was given, so far The Shining, The Aviator, 300, and I Am Legend were currently mentioned to kick things off with.

The sooner Blu-ray prices fall (although players I believe are a larger barrier then the media itself), the sooner people will begin a mass adaptation of Blu-ray and this not only effects Sony from a manufacture standpoint (and im sure Sony makes spiffs on this stuff) but Sony Pictures profits from this as well the PlayStation 3, being the only console with native Blu-ray support.
