Heck, to be honest, I can't usually see the difference in poor quality video tapes off of TV and a DVD movie. That points out two things. Many people right now still have SDTVs (or less). And people whose eyesight isn't perfect aren't going to notice the imperfections of existing technologies as much as the cost of new technologies. By 2020, Blu-Ray will be the standard that DVD is now. But probably not much before 2016. Mike from Morgantown |
No one buys a HD movie player that only has a SDTV, where's the logic in that? Those who have HDTVs easily notice the difference between a upscaled DVD and a Blu-ray. Frankly I'm kind of tired of hearing a upscaled DVD is almost as good, its not even close the picture is far clearer and sharper, as well as the sound on Blu-ray
