Microsoft fastholder at de tog den rette beslutning, da de valgte at putte et almindeligt DVD-drev i Xbox 360 frem for et af de nye HD-formater. Microsofts director of entertainment and marketing Stephen McGil mener, at Blu-Ray allerede er blevet overhalet indenom.
I et interview med Xbox 360 Achievements siger han:
"I think people now recognise what a smart decision it was to keep the pricing low, and actually Blu-ray is going to be passed by as a format. People have moved through from DVDs to digital downloads and digital streaming, so we offer full HD 1080p Blu-ray quality streaming instantly, no download, no delay. So, who needs Blu-ray?"
Har han ret? Er Blu-Ray en teknologisk blindgyde?
