In Reply to: I finally have HDTV! But what's up with the poor quality HD signals out there? posted by kurt s on August 9, 2006 at 08:00:05:
I just ordered a new TV to get HD for football and baseball. But more and more I'm reading about how little real HD there is out there, and now I finally get it... the only true HD is the HD "commercial", that is, the bug and flower shows, and that five-minute chunk of a North Carolina football game I used to see at Harvey's. Just like SACD! Oh well, at least the screen is bigger. I guess I'll never live to see HD as the standard for all TV shows, or high def as the standard for all audio, either. They're interesting when company comes over (look what I've got), but there isn't enough of it to involve yourself on a regular basis.
