It depends. If the display has a good line doubler as part of it, then it can really make a significant difference in the display of standard NTSC broadcast video. I use DishNetwork as my signal source because they can provide the local stations in my area, and the difference between antenna, cable, and what arrives on the dish can easily be seen - the DishNetwork signal is far superior.The difference between HDTV and NTSC line-doubled is (subjectively, as to the way it looks) on a percentage scale - about 50% better. This can be directly compared using an HBO program that is simultaneously broadcast in standard video format and HDTV. The NTSC line doubled looks good, the HDTV looks great.
