This weekend marks the begining of the end for HD DVD players, Best Buy and other major retailers like Amazon.com will be offering big discounts on their hardware and movies. I recommend purchasing an HD DVD player, but not HD DVDs. Why? Well the logic is simple, if you have a 720p or 1080p Televsion your regular DVDs will look great on an HD DVD player because of the upscale.
Upscaling is a process that mathematically matches the pixel count of the output of the DVD signal to the physical pixel count on an HDTV, which is typically 1280x720 (720p) or 1920x1080 (1080i - and, some cases, 1080p). - Robert Silva,
This means your regular DVD collection will look better with an HD DVD player on a high definition televsion than without one. There will also be a 2 for 1 bargin bin sale at Best Buy for HD DVDs if you so choose to stock your collection with classics like, The Bourne Identity, The Bourne Supremacy, The Bourne Ultimatum, currently only on HD DVD.
