Over 9 million Blu-rays were sold in Q1, crushing the 4.5 million sold last year. The research firm points to the sudden explosion in Blu-ray-enabled homes, which are now estimated to comprise 10.5 million households. The majority of these homes aren't just watching Blu-ray on their PS3s, either, as 75% (7-8 Million) own standalone Blu-ray players (twice as many as last year). With so many folks hopping on the Blu-ray train, maybe now we can finally get those American Ninja flicks on Blu-ray!
