Which means that when the new DVDs appear, those who want full resolution will have to buy again. I wonder if the flat-screen mnfrs have provided some kind of plug-in capability, i.e. buy an upgrade, plug-in module. The knowing market will be furious once they find out that to display $35-45 discs at full resolution, new display purchases will be necessasry.

I think the Hi Def DVDs will look so good on today's better HiDef sets that no one will care about not having 1920 x 1080.

These questions may have been posted too many times before, however. . . .

1. With Blu-Ray or HD-DVD DVDs just around the corner, why is the new breed of 1920 x 1080p display not equipped to handle sources at that resolution?

$$$$$$

2. Also, what is the latest feeling regarding Hollywood and their push to invoke 960 x 540p when classic component cabling is used? (their push for all systems to use HDMI/HDCP technology)...?


Hollywood wins for now.
