Its tough teaching older generations.

With age comes experience. The first time you see a quality standard advance, it's amazing (for you, dvd -> BD). For someone like me or your father the 6th time is meh (B&W TV -> Color -> Beta -> SVHS -> Video Disk -> DVD -> BD).

He is acting the same way you probably will act the 6th time you see TV quality advance. The first time is worth $700 bucks. The 6th time might not be worth $50.
