Japanese Groups: Blu-ray to Overtake DVD in 2013

posted on by Egan Loo

On Thursday, the Digital Entertainment Group Japan (DEG Japan) and the Blu-ray Disc Association declared that they aim to have Blu-ray Discs overtake DVDs in numbers shipped by 2013. The two industry groups predict that Blu-ray will have a 41% share of the market this year, and 58% next year. By 2014, the groups intend for Blu-ray to have a 71% share.

In the first half of 2011, DVD sales made up 77.8 percent of the Japanese home video market. However, anime Blu-ray Discs have a higher percentage of the anime home video market in Japan.
