Sony apparently is all talk at this point. They claim they have the storage advantage, but according to this article they can't get a working disc out of the lab to production. Right now, HD-DVD has the upperhand because they have shown they can mass produce a 30 gigabyte dual layer disc. Sony can't do the same, so their capacity is considered to be limited to the 25 gigabyte single layer disc.
Read the article to see why Microsoft and Intel think HD-DVD is the better format.
