My 2c real quick:

The quality of BR over DVD is HUGELY noticeable once you get over 48" screen size. Just compare Planet Earth or Ratatouille on DVD and BR and you'll be blown away. Good example on Ratatouille: the rats' hairs are fuzzy ("aliased") on the DVD version, but crystal clear on the BR version.

That said: PS3 is still supposed to be the best player.

Finally: I'm not so sure physical media is going to be around much longer especially with things like streaming netflix via Xbox Live. Just a thought.
