Thieves grab 200 Blu-ray discs from Silver Platters
A group of thieves are currently on the run after stealing 200 Blu-ray discs from giant retailer, Silver Platters. Seattle Times reports that the burglary at Northgate is currently under investigation, after around US$ 7,000 worth of Blu-ray discs were snagged.
Almost all of the store’s Blu-ray selection were taken away, said Silver Platters Vice President Mike Batt. The same retailer offers HD-DVDs and DVDs, but they were left unharmed.
Recent reports say that Blu-ray discs are outselling HD-DVD five-to-one. Even in Europe, where more HD-DVD players are reaching households than the stand alone Blu-ray player, Sony‘s high-definition format is still ahead in sales figures.
