thats nice but i will care when any new movie comes out for all these HD DVD players... untill then ill be enjoying all my NEW movies on blu-ray

With HD-DVD you can watch normal DVD's in High-Def. You just wont have all of the extras like Blu Ray or HD-DVD had.

Completely wrong. That sounds like an uninformed consumer and the next phase of HD DVD supporters settlling for good enough. Not saying you are "settling" but your comment on upscaling equalling quality of actual 1080p is so far from true

This is a comparison of upscaled to 1080p vs BD

I would be just as happy with the former as the latter.

You and me both brother... I see no reason to give up my Pioneer 1080p upscaling DVD player that cost me $75 for a decent Blu-Ray player that still goes for around $300

@stteverhcp02... As for that comparison pic, stand a minimum of 6 feet away from your computer monitor (normal TV viewing distance), then tell me if you see any noticeable difference!  That pic is only relevant if you're watching a movie less than 2 feet away from your computer/TV screen!
