^ so, "goodbye box sets", in other words.
Now that I finally have both set up, I have to say that I think they are both equally amazing. I am very impressed with both, and I honestly dont see a difference in the two. both are amazing. Im surprised why some people think Blu-Ray is better in picture than HdDvd, both seem equal to me.
From the research I've done, 1080p is just a marketing tool. For example, if a manufacturer puts a "p" instead of an "i" they can sell a tv for hundreds more and make more money. Asking people at Best Buy, Circuit City, or wherever will say the same thing because that's their job. However, the only way you can see a difference between 720, 1080i, or 1080p is to get within a foot or so of your tv and then you can see minor granulation and cross patterns...but who gets that close to watch?The only difference is between SD (480) and HD (720, 1080i/p). I think that the more important things to look at when shopping for a tv are contrast ratios (the higher the number the better, i.e. 15,000:1) and refresh rates. Those two things will give you more colors and less pixelation and make your picture better. It has nothing to do with i or p or any other nonsense sales people want you to believe.
