I think Sony is credited with the format simply because it is the largest of all the other companies and packs a better punch when bringing new standards to the market. Sony is the unwritten standard that all electronics are compared to so if they are coming out with a new high definition player and format, it must be good because it is Sony. This is the reasoning that most people have.

From a retail standpoint, I think this format can not loose, they have too many manufacturers backing it and movie studios putting out new releases. With the PS3 coming in a few months, Sony will have more BRD players sold by Christmas than Toshiba will have sold all year.
