The problem for HD-DVD right now is:

Sony: Blu-ray will be equipped on every single PS3 sold

MS: HD-DVD may or may not come to the Xbox 360 eventually, but most
systems will just have a standard DVD drive

Guess who has the edge here?

The only question right now is "Will PS3's be able to play Blu-ray
movies right out of the box?" And Sony would be damned fools not to
have this feature standard.
