In Reply to: What justifies purchasing an HDTV set? posted by dingo dave on September 10, 2006 at 00:26:43:
If you want a large screen, an HD set will take advantage of improved resolution some cable channels seem to have, and make SD watchable. But most SD looks fuzzy on large screens and the 4:3 format is problematic. Actually, I think the prime benefit of HDTV is going to be making the same old SD crap look OK on 60" screens.DVDs on a big screen TV look a lot better on if its a HD set. Network sports in HD can look great. If you really like snakes and fish in HD, Discovery and PBS HD is great.
Otherwise, HDTV isn't really worth the rather substantial investment; the HD material is scarce and the tv producers don't seem to have a clue how to exploit it. The longer you hold out, the cheaper and better the technology will be. If it weren't for our DVD viewing (and Netflix), I'd probably regret buying an HD TV set.
