With its piracy-protection system, blu-ray might just eventually kill itself.
If you insert a disc without the proper protection keys, the player stops working. If you try to open the player it will stop working. To "reactivate" it you need to hook up online and download updates.
You will also require updates every 3 months to keep a player working.
