I think the only reason that we have only 48 pre-1970 titles on BD is that they don't sell. Why else would Sony release the Boetticher westerns on DVD but not on BD? Or Paramount release Breakfast At Tiffany's for the third or fourth time on DVD but not on BD? Why does Universal not release any Hitchcock? Fairly recent HD masters exist for all of the above if I'm not mistaken so additional costs can not be the major factor in preventing their release on BD.
Frankly, I've given up hope of seeing many classics on BD and certainly not many of the ones I'd like to see. The only postive is that it has become a very cheap hobby for me as I don't buy much modern stuff and I don't buy DVD's at all anymore.
