Yeah, I loved HD from the moment I knew about it. I still can't believe my friends said I was wasting my money and that there's no difference. :/

I'd have to disagree on the difference being minimal. Being able to see individual hairs on people's heads is awesome!

I rarely do, but when I do go to a movie theater I always go to the HD theater near me. It's called Cinetopia.

Not really as I watch quite a few very old movies of very questionable quality as sadly that is the best we can do at the moment and as a result I'm still rather fine with SD fuzziness. That being said I am becoming increasingly spoiled by HD sweetness after watching and increasing amount of cheesy films from the '60s, '70s and lately handful of silent films from the '20s the have impressed me to such a degree that I'm beginning to become disappointed when I can't watch silent film and be able to read all the posters and headlines of newspapers in the background or read the expression on bit players' faces.

Well first and foremost sport MUST be in HD, I really get turned off when it isn't. HD channels are pretty much non-existent in Australia's commercial channels (kind of like NBC) but the Pay TV channels seem to make up for it with a decent amount of HD content. As for the movies, well I just watched Source Code on Blu-ray and everyone's face was ... very detailed. It's just nice, I don't puchase or rent DVDs anymore, so I've pretty much converted completely.

I think the way it stands blu-rays and HD will eventually but slowly replace standard definition. It'll probably be another six years before most 1st world countries convert completely.

I like not-small resoultions. Resoulutions don't need to be specifically on or above the "HD" line. Still watch non-HD TV sometimes even if I could wait and get it on Blu-ray.

I don't have digital or satellite cable or another way of having HD TV shows other than discs, and for TV the difference between 720p and 1080p/i isn't huge to me.

I'll try to get the highest resolution I can in what I'm watching on a computer. My monitor is only 1680 x 1050 so I'm not too insistant on the highest resolutions.

It shouldn't be 'an'. :PMushroomWig

I thought it was generally "an" before acronyms and stuff... Or it didn't matter. idk.

"An HD" should be fine...

"An high definition TV" sounds weird, "An historic property" sounds not too weird (I've heard it used for that word)

No. I don't see what the hooplah is over it. I still don't even have a HD tv yet mainly because my old SD one just refuses to stop working.

Not too much for TV, but for gaming, makes quite a difference.

No. The difference is minimal.

HD is nice, but not a must. However, SD can look pretty ugly on a non-CRT HD display.

But when you get to watch football in its HD glory and then have to go back, it suuuuuuuucccckkkksssss. After your SDTV goes kaput and you buy an HDTV, you'll see that I'm right. :P

I have no HDTV television service to speak of, and I don't really care either. I have a 26" 720p Sanyo that I bought for $280 last year. It's actually not bad at all considering the price and brand, could definitely have done worse. I only use it with my 360. It's definitely a hell of a nice upgrade, but it wasn't a mind-blowing step up from playing on my old SDTV like I was being led to believe.

I thought it was.

How so? The whole story was based around the idea that the human race is built to destroy, the movie is sort of a wake up call, even though most aren't perceptive enough to understand it.

i was perceptive enough to see that it was dances with pocahontas with flashy effects.

I prefer HD of course, but it still irks the hell out of me when I play a game that is so built around HD that it is literally impossible to read the text on an SD screen. That's just lazy.

I've got a 32" sharp HDTV, but I'm fine with watching DVD's and standard def TV on it. I've only got about a dozen Blu rays and sure the picture quality is great, but up-converted DVD's look perfectly fine on it too. I never got HDTV from my cable company because their channel lineup is garbage and I only watch TV shows on the rarest of occasions anyway. Too many damned commercials.

I do love my hi-def video games on my PS3 though.
