All horses for courses. Some will say its the dogs dangly bits - others like me say its good, but its not something I would purposly watch until it becomes the norm.

And yes, I did shed a tear when I dumped vinyl for CD
I agree with a lot of that.

When we only had a 32" set the difference was minimal, but on a 46" set it is sometimes a huge difference but the quality differs on different channels and indeed different content shown on the same channel. And of course the audio can be like night and day too.

BBC HD is usually very good but EastEnders seems only marginally better in HD to me.
