Domicinator - I'm completely with you on this, and its my experience as well. Although I'm no "true" audio/videophile - I find I'm the one pushing my friends to adopt this new tech, and explain how it all works.
The main reason we got a new TV (apart from it being a lot bigger), was for the digital tuner (clearer picture). A bonus is the "HD" tuner - but people in my household have NO idea how it works, or that we have extra channels.
I find myself constantly switching from channel 7 to channel 70 (for example) - as its almost always the same content. They look at me as if I'm mad - they ask why I did that, and I try to get them to see the difference in picture quality... they just can't see it.
BluRay is cool - it looks better, it sounds better - but its also a luxury. One that most people just don't care about.
PS - I rip all my CDs at 128kbps. Its more than good enough for me.
