After the initial posts I decided that blu-ray wasn't going to be worth the extra dollars due to my TV limitations so I bought a Pioneer DV-48V player.

Good news is that even if it wasn't the best decision it only cost $99 delivered. I can buy a blu-ray in a year or two if I want and it won't be a great loss of investment.

But I would like to say thanks for the thoughtfull replies. AA rules!

Too bad. You would have found the quality of blu-ray very rewarding - Jazz Inmate 15:51:17 12/06/08 (0)
The advantages are easily visible on your 1080i panny. You would need to upgrade your preamp at some point to support HDMI and high definition multichannel audio.

Looks like you got a nice deal on the Pioneer. Personally I think the BR player would have been the better choice for the future. That way you wouldn't have to bother with buying a BR player a year or so from now.

Up conversion in no way, shape or form compares to Blu ray...not even close.
Nonetheless...I'm sure you'll enjoy it, if you're accustom to standard DVD PQ.

Enjoy the new toy.
