my sis-in-law can't tell difference between hd and sd and her eyesight is fine
my wife can tell now, after only 4 years of owning an hdtv with hd cable...
blu-ray/hd-dvd is definitely better than dvd, but
a) dvd isn't as bad as sdtv, so not as great a leap as sdtv to hdtv
b) many people (sis-in-law) can't tell the difference
c) many many others don't see enough value in the difference to pay much premium for it
dvd had features that sold it; blu-ray is only quality...the value:price ratio is just not there yet and won't be until blu-ray players are
