Sony Pictures, MGM and Columbia have ties to Sony so they won't be going anywhere. Fox and Disney like their DRM so thats why they are staying. New Line have problems with HD DVD being region free so they are delaying all their HD DVD releases indefinetly.
That leaves Paramount and Universal (HD DVD), Weinstein (neutral but not doing much), Warner (neutral, looking to decide in Q1 next year) and other smaller studios that just aren't interested in HDM yet.
