But Blu-Ray drives might come as accessories in the future? (Getting dizzy, huh?)

Microsoft said that they “don’t have any plans”  to introduce any Blu-Ray add-on for the XBOX 360.

Here’s the full statement:

Steve was referring to Blu-ray accessories for the PC. As we have said in the past, we have no plans to introduce a Blu-ray drive for the Xbox 360. In fact, the future of home entertainment starts this fall when Xbox 360 becomes the first and only console to offer instant-on 1080p streaming HD movies. With a library of thousands of TV shows and movies to choose from, Xbox 360 owners can instantly watch the movies they want, when they want, in the highest form of high definition.

This is what Ballmer said in reply to a question about putting Blu-ray in Xbox:

Well I don’t know if we need to put Blu-ray in there—you’ll be able to get Blu-ray drives as accessories.
