Warner is hinting at picking sides based on comparative hardware sales during this Holiday season. So even if both formats' hardware sales are abysmally bad for the year, they could try to force the issue one way or the other based on who comes out ahead in the numbers game.

the other player is Best Buy, they could simply stop stocking HD DVD and/or Blu ray based on lousy sales figures for the Holiday season. E.g. even if Warner's stays neutral, BB could say they are only stocking one hi-def format (Blu-ray or HD DVD) from Warner's from now on because of this dual inventory BS.
