Online retailer Curtis Meijer is the first to offer a sub $100 blu-ray player. And guess what, it is already sold out! That should tell those nay-sayers that the only thing holding blu-ray back from the top post is the price point. $30 per disc is still way too much, but with a $99 player, it makes the whole process a little easier on the pocketbook. Especially in this economy. Let the price war begin!
