The picture quality fluctuates a lot. Some scenes have great quality, others look like crap. Can't speak much for the sound, but the picture quality fluctuations definitely will draw your attention.
Overall, it is HD and it is good. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone interested who doesn't own it on DVD, but I don't know if I'd be so willing to recommend it to someone who'd be double dipping it, particularly due to the heavy cost on it... Amazon has a bundle of both available seasons for about 87 bucks; kinda silly to spend so much money to get something with a little higher quality. I mean, I can totally understand rebuying movies and things, but that's almost 100 bucks (or more if you consider what the DVD cost you already) and the quality increase that you're paying so much for isn't even consistent.
I guess you could wait though. I'm sure the price will come down a lot or maybe there'll be a good priced bundle with the 3rd season when that comes out. You might even be able to get a good deal on a used set.
