NYT: Better if HD DVD would die - Blu-ray Forum

Callous as this may sound, the world would be a lot better off if HD DVD would just go ahead and die; the lingering format war is keeping the whole new world of high-def movies on DVD from blossoming.

Fairly neutral discussion of dual-format players, ending with an admonition to wait, but the above sentiment from the NYT is pretty terse and from a major news source.
