Also it's vastly more easy to find out what's coming to Blu-ray, find info on specific titles, and even simply finding Blu-rays in stores. In DVD's early days it was ridiculously hard to just find stores carrying them. Most stores had just a couple squirreled away in a back corner if they had any at all. Also it was hard to figure what was coming, new DVD releases just seem to magically appear without notice.
On pricing, I can remember paying $30 a pop for Anchor Bay titles in '97-'98, the same ones either now replaced by better editions or now found in 6-DVD Anchor Bay box sets for $30 or less total.
So yeah, it's not much different. At least we aren't living in the $30-$60+ for single Laserdisc/$100+ for Laserdisc box set days.
