Planet Earth - The RIGHT Version? (1 Viewer)

Well it's not going to look bad either if you have an upconverting dvd player and a 1080p LCD either.

That's true!

So send anyone saying that it sucks for you guys to me...

I don't fully understand the english in the above quote- I assume he is stating the Hi-Def is (much) better into response to my statement "I can't really see how HD types are that much better." Let me restate. I bought an expensive high-quality PAL 30" Tube TV. I am not ready to throw my TV into the garbage in order to get Hi-Def. The PAL quality picture is far superior to the NTSC picture. I felt that the PQ of the PAL Planet Earth is extremely good on a PAL TV. For the reasons just mentioned plus the fact that there are 2 systems (ala VHS & Betamax) I don't think now is another reason not to take the plunge as well as $$$ . I find the PQ so good - that I am not rushing out to get a Hi-Def. I will not dispute that many people think that Hi-Def is very good Also by getting the Standard DVDs ( some months ago) , I also get the various extras not included for some strange reason on the Hi-Def sets.

Any more ideas on Blu Ray vs. HD DVD?

Just wanna make sure I get the best version!

In all likelihood, the actual video content should be the exact same. Regardless of which you buy, it should be an outstanding viewing experience.

Thanks for the update...

My Blu-Ray machine is more capable than my HD-DVD player, so I guess I've made my decision!

Thanks so much!
