** This thread discusses the content article: Major Nelson Says, "No Blu-Ray for 360" **

It's not too hard to imagine a plug-and-play Blu-Ray peripheral intended for PCs, but also compatible with the Xbox 360.
The HD-DVD drive is an excellent example: sure it was marketed as an Xbox peripheral, but it could easily be plugged into any PC or laptop with a USB port and used as an external HD-DVD drive.
I could definitely see an external Blue-Ray drive sold for the PC becoming compatible with the Xbox (and this is definitely the way for MS to go IMHO)

I say just buy a PS3. Not only do you get Blu-ray, but now you can play twice as many games!

I wouldn't exactly say twice as many games.
Also, Blu-Ray players are starting to come down in price, so the PS3 is starting to look more like an expensive gaming system rather than an inexpensive Blu-Ray player (that being said, I still would really like to own one).

Well, before this holiday season I'd probably agree with you. But it does look like they've got some cool stuff coming out in the future. For once I'm thinking that I might actually use my PS3 for something other than watching movies.
