I wonder what equipment you have, but the movie you were watching must've been upconverted standard definition tv. A real HD broadcast is night and day above standard...even digital cable and DSS (both of which are way overcompressed). It's too bad the olympics aren't still on, but watching the Hockey matches in HD was like you were in the stands. Watching the regular version was like watching TV. The source makes a big difference. The Superbowl this year was shot in widescreen 480p (basically like a DVD). The one last year was shot in true 1080i. The difference is astounding. Brian, did you have to overcome all the roadblocks discussed in the article? The author makes it look like its a major hassle and costly. ted
