Sony can fix this by fixing the licensing.
If they can reduce the cost of blue-rays for movie producers then they can increase the number of titles that are in Blue-Ray format. Once blue-ray is abundant and desirable the prices will come down.

Also, while the PS3 is pricey Apple has already shown the world with their iPhones that over pricing a product does not hinder success, poorly marketing it does. Although it's true that many see the iPhone as not having competitors, as far as blue-ray goes the PS3 doesn't have competitors either.
