I screwed up. I went out and bought me a nice Plasma TV because I wanted to jump into HDTV and my old Toshiba 32" wasnt cutting it for widescreen movies
So I spend a crap load of money buying a plasma, HDMI cables, mounting hardwared, getting my DirecTV HD package, etc.
BUT!
HD DVD players are 400 bucks, movies are more expensive and then I read scary things that more HD DVD players wont be coming out till next year IF companies decided to make them.
Then theres Blue Ray which is the same as above, Expensive, not many players , etc.
So I get to thinking. Why the heck did I get HD right now and why would anyone want to get HDTV right now. I mean yes theres HD Cable and Satellite but thats very few channels and even then its not a true true HD picture, or at least some channels arent. So that leaves only DVD players to give your HDTV a true HD feed.
