BDP-S1 was quickly supplanted by PS3 due to the console's superior BD feature set. I suppose you could say that BDP-S1 was the flagship on paper. In practice? It was the console.

Even in 2016 there are plenty of folks that are happy to play low rez DVD's and have no desire to upgrade to blu-ray (although blu-ray now outsells DVD). It wasn't until 2008 however that all major studios even started releasing movies on blu-ray (Universal & Paramount being the last).

Including me. I bought my first non-game Blu-ray disc last month (I've had a second-hand PS3 for 5 or 6 years, now
).
