All I can say is, you've never watched a 480p up conversion to 720p or 1080i on a Samsung DVD-HD1000. If you had, you'd eat your words dude, that's for sure even on a 100" front projection system.

What's amazing is, you didn't even say S-VHS. About anybody knows that S-VHS is capable of more lines of resolution on NTSC via S-video than standard VHS via composite video.

Frankly, either way, the comparison is a joke. DVD wins hands down even in 480i. Are you sure you plugged your DVD player up in your comparison?

That doesn't even take into consideration every time you play a VHS tape it degrades in quality. With DVD, the laser never touches the disc.
