I never thought that I would become a quality whore but lately, I can hardly stand to watch anything in standard definiation. Beyond that, I read reviews for just about everything I'm thinking of upgrading (most recently, Sin City which is an amazing blu-ray upgrade).
It's actually becoming a problem because we only two blu-ray players - The PS3 downstairs and the blu-ray player in my room. What that means in the long haul is that my son and my mother can't watch anything new that I'm purchasing (since they only have DVD players). Anyway, I was wondering if anyone else was experiencing the same thing - becoming nearly completely adverse to watching standard def. |

tbh I can't see the difference I have never watched anything in HD, or if I did couldn't tell the difference. top is bluray, bottom is standard dvd. notice the natural colors and how the pixels aren't thinned or stretched and that the image is slightly sharper. |

HD has nothing to do with stretched pixels or image sharpness, it's about resolution. You simply cannot tell the difference at smaller sizes. Obviously, hd is going to look better at 40", but nobody with more sense than money watches TV at that size. |

But 720p can still look very awesome on TV's less than 40". but why are we talking about TV sizes? . but like i said, the colors are still more natural even on smaller tv's. regular dvd < blu ray quality |
