We read at DVD Times that the BDA has held a press conference in London to draw attention to a new sales milestone in Europe.
According to speakers at the even, since launch there have been 2.37M Blu-ray Discs sold across Europe.
At IFA last year (which is Aug/Sep time frame) the total was said to be around 1M discs, indicating significant sales growth in Europe.
The 2.4M discs equate to 79% of the HD Media market for Europe.
