  Xbox boss questions why consumers would upscale from DVD
  
  Xbox president Robbie Bach has criticised Blu-Ray’s lack of sales success since the HD-DVD format imploded – and questioned why consumers would bother upscaling from DVD.
  
  Speaking to the San Francisco Chronicle, Bach also ruled out any possibility of a Blu-Ray enabled Xbox – either in this or the next generation.
  
  Bach said: “If you look at the Blu-ray player market, you haven't seen the acceleration everybody expected (since the demise of HD DVD).

  “No. There is nothing to even talk about right now with regard to the next generation. That is so far out that there isn't anything to talk about.”
