It seems (to me) interesting this quote from Nicolas Gisin "Against Many-
Worlds", 
ch. 4 of the paper ' Are There Quantum Effects Coming from Outside Space-time?
Nonlocality, free will and "no many-worlds" ' 

http://arxiv.org/pdf/1011.3440.pdf

"On the contrary, I do not see any explanatory power in the many worlds: it 
seems
to be made just to prevent one from asking (possibly provocative) questions. 
Moreover, it has built in it the impossibility of any test: all its 
predictions are identical
to those of quantum theory. For me, it looks like "cushion for laziness" 
(un coussin de paresse in French). And there is a second, decisive, reason to 
reject 
the many-worlds view: it leaves no space for free will."
