Sony's in a 'bag of hurt' because of Blu-ray

[rolltide101x]

Nobody with a brain thinks that 1366x768 is 720p. (that's why the 720p in my post was in quotes)

BUT, a huge number of TVs sold as '720p' are actually 1366x768 panels. It results in even worse picture quality than a straight up 1280x720 screen would be. What sucks is that there are also TVs that are 1024x768 that are sold as 720p as well. Very misleading, and interestingly they probably account for a lot of people that think that Bluray is not much better than DVD.

MILLIONS of those crappy TVs were sold over the last decade, so it's pretty easy to see where some bad ideas come from.

I did not know that.  Thanks! I have bought only 1080p tvs lol
