News > PS3 Boosts Blu-Ray Sales By 1000%
July 5, 2007
Sony Pictures Home Entertainment (SPHE) has announced a huge increase in the sales of European blu-ray discs. To what do they attribute the rise? The PS3, of course.
Since the PS3 launched overseas in March, SPHE is claiming that blu-ray disc sales have increased by over 1000 percent.
Matt Brown, executive VP at Sony Pictures, had this to say:
"The launch of the PS3 had a tremendous impact on Blu-ray software sales across the board. Recent sales figures are a clear indication that the PS3 is seen as an entertainment device."
If not games, at least the PS3 has movies.
