Microsoft, unlike Sony is not really keen on adopting Blu-ray for its gaming console. Now in an interview with a gaming site, Xbox UK’s head, Stephen McGill claims Blu-ray will be dead sooner or later.

“Actually Blu-ray is going to be passed by as a format,” said McGill.

McGill further says that consumers have shifted from DVDs to digital downloads and streaming, which Xbox currently offers these services via Zune.
