Apple and Sony are very important players in pro video scene and they already determined the winner of format war: BluRayIt is _still_ early to buy a bluray computer device, must wait for those Taiwan guys move to blu-ray.
While Apple couldn't decide a format, their backing would mean a lot. Apple machines are the preferred system to produce video on. Every studio in my area uses Mac. So if those Mac where to come with preferred support of one format over another then guess what the video content would be on as it came out of the machine and to your living room?
I am thinking outside the box here...what if there was no media :-o I mean, broadband speeds are ever increasing, HD streaming is a possibility. Its not going to happen over night, but I can imagine in the next 5 years this becoming more likely

Won't happen until Apple adds HDCP to OS X's rendering path, which is large enough a change to warrant a completely new cat.
