Netflx Ups Price For Blu-ray

Netflix has announced that it will start charging unlimited plan subscribers an extra $1 a month if they want access to blu-ray movies. Seems well worth it for those with blu-ray players.

I believe iTunes-like movie rentals or simply buying and downloading a movie in HD will be the ultimate winner of the HD format war. The question is, how long will it take.  If takes too long, buying a blu-ray may be worth it.
