Near %30 of market share is not "niche". In weeks with new releases of uber-popular catalog titles, like Star Wars, it's market share has been as high as %44. Blu-ray is a viable and significant format.
You also assume to much about blu-ray.com users. I visit the site many times a week and really appreciate the blu-ray format. That said, I still buy more DVDs then Blu-ray. In fact, before Black Friday I had purchased more VHS than Blu-ray this year.
So far my 2012 purcahses are :
Blu-ray: 44
DVD: 135
VHS: 35
