1080/24p vs 1080/60p - Vertical Res still not clear...

Can someone enlighten me on these types of video capabilities? I'm aware of the frequency differences for vertical and horizontal resolution, however I see many publications refering to the 1080/24p as being the "best picture" possible. I realize that many brands and types of sets resolve a variety of vert/horz frequencies, however I would believe that 1080/60p would be the higher or "better picture" possible if your TV is compatible/capable. So why the push for 1080/24p or am I misunderstanding?? Also......Is anyone aware of other firmware upgrades for the BDP-S1, specifically DD Plus/DTS HD bitstream via HDMI or any other means? Thanks.
