HD-VMD is an option if it garners studio support. It would require quite the exodus though and is thus unlikely.

Most likely if the BD50 situation does not improve (i.e. BD50 lines don't become more economical and reliable for replication houses to implement) then we will likely just see Blu-ray used as a 25GB format for the masses.

In any scenario, HD downloads is an obvious alternative, too.
