You will. or you can order off the net. There's 100's of titles available,

Definitely not too little. Late, but not too late.

Guess you haven't seen the CES reort from the Blu-Ray people.

Turns out all the current blu-ray machines made so far will not be
compatible with the 2.0 profile. And the only reason the earlier one was
released was because HD-DVD was coming out. They admit it was released at
least a year too early. Yep, go out and buy one right now. Then you can
buy another one in a few months since the older machines are not
upgradable. BDA also said the manufacturers knew this from the beginning.
Screw me once your fault, srew me twice.... go for it:-)
