Thanks for your responses, I need a little more clarification, Sd what do you mean by 480-progressive and 480-interlaced? Is this just like a line doubler? Is it digitally created? I have a 2 year old 32" Sony but not a Wega, it has a s-video input. I will upgrade to HDTV but not for a year or two 'til the broadcast become more popular and the sets cheaper. It sounds like your saying the progressive scan dvd players are not worth the money with a regular TV. If thats true then I'll wait 'til I get the TV and just continue to upgrade the audio end of it. Thanks again.
