I never even knew that. 50Htz UK Hi Def. I was thinking for faster
motion, the higher refresh would be the better.
So what is the advantage of a 100Htz TV then?

What about things like NTSC DVDs and progressive scan, which is my main
priority as far as viewing goes, that and HDTV rips I download abut
they are compressed anyway and so their display isn't a major concern?

Basically I want to know what features I am looking out for in a HD
ready plasma screen. preferred resolutions etc Tuner isn't required if
there are non tuner options out their as I will be getting a twin tuner
Humax 9200T when they are available, supposed to be end of this month.
