This is an interesting thread that is bringing out views not expressed very often. I am fairly satisfied with the way DVDs look on my wide screen TV, and am still buying SD DVDs. What has changed is that I only buy widescreen DVDs.

When I finally do get into high def movies on disk, I will probably buy the new releases (and only new releases) high def version over the standard def. No plans right now to replace existing movies.

On the other hand, I am frustrated with the lack of HD content on television. Guess that puts me in the middle on this matter.

The opinions really are all over the place in this forum, sometimes approaching the level of religious fervor. Hard for me to get really worked up on this matter.

There are differences in the way people look at cars as well. Some people love their cars, polish, clean, shine, park at funny angles in parking lots and pay more than I paid for my first house. I look at cars as transportation and think it is a shame to wash off the protective layer of dirt on the outside.

Differences are what make people different.
