Currently, most have a widescreen TV that really has no better resolution. But it is a wide screen - therefore it must be better - their reasoning. All that wide screen does in most situations is make faces fatter.
There is a distinct difference in quality of a native HD broadcast and a DVD, even on a 720p set like mine...with the HD broadcast content being far superior, I suppose I should add.
