Prices will remain higher for a while with the pressure from HD DVD removed.

But eventually the CE manufacturers will compete with each other for market share (just like with DVD).

I think part of Warner's decision is based on the development in BDA profiles. I imagine a prerequisite for their decision was knowing in advance of BDA player announcements prior to CES. I don't particularly care for PIP/IME/frills but Warner, Disney et al seem to think these are vital selling points.
