Screen Digest Thinks HD-DVD and Blu-Ray Will Merge

This seems like a perfectly sensible way to approach this issue.

The ongoing battle between the Toshiba-developed HD-DVD format and the
Sony-backed Blu-ray digital disc will likely end in a draw, with both
technologies merging into one instead of either format winning out,
Reuters reports.

I think the battle will probably cost them many millions in lost revenue as people hold off purchases until they find out which one is superior. Some may just wait until China or whoever just makes a DVD player that would be able to show both Blu-Ray and HD-DVD.
