RE: appreciate your comments

"The size of the display is a factor as well because you need at least a 50" display to start seeing the difference at normal seating distances."

The display used was a full HD Samsung 50" screen, but resolution isn't the be all and end all of PQ, otherwise a £100 DVD player would have as good a picture as a £3,000 DVD player and all HD-DVD/BluRay players would have the same PQ.

Similarly, the 50" HD ready Panasonic Viera is prefered over it's FULL HD brethen for PQ by HC magazine, but I also take your point (which I suspected beforehand) that up to 50" screensize, the advantages of HD-DVD or BluRay may not be obvious, especially when compared to the very best DVD players with broadcast quality upscaling.

If I were to get a projector however it would probably be a different tale as the demos I've seen with High Definition on larger screens have been mouth watering.
