HD-DVD "lost" because Sony padded their numbers by counting every PS3 as a Blu-Ray player. Had that not been done, the difference in the number of players sold would not have been as dramatic, and the studios would not have dropped HD-DVD so quickly.

It may not be the only reason but I think it had a large part to do with it.

You can usually see where the pits are burned on the disc. If the data doesn't come all the way to the crack, it should be fine.
But with the speed the discs spin in the player, it could potentially be a problem as the discs can possibly split and screw up the player.
