No Blu-ray on Xbox 360

This is not the first time Ballmer’s comments have created confusion so it’s not surprising Microsoft trying to retract what he said in the recent interview. Ballmer said Blu-ray accessory would be offered as an add on but Major Nelson from the Xbox team has jumped in to try clear things up. Apparently, Ballmer meant Blu-ray accessories for the PC and not Xbox. Yes, I know its weird but maybe not mentioning Xbox in the statement saved Ballmer.

We would still want Blu-ray to be a part of Xbox but Microsoft is inclined to provide Blu-ray quality videos via Netflix streaming.
