i found this on craigslist chicago,

i read on CL ,some one's warnings on HD DVD PLAYERS ,you see reading here & there & reading reviews & then telling people that whats better, is not the same as having the device in your home & knowing whats what ,TOSHIBA HD DVD PLAYER is a state of the art dvd player ,dont sell it if you have it, dvd stores are not gonna ve blu ray for a very long time ,regular dvds are gonna run for a solid 10 more years & im not sure if any one is gonna buy movies like" i know who killed me" or "30 days of night" for 35 bucks a piece , so in that sense it realy dont matter wether you have a HD or BLU RAY , what realy matters is that which player is gonna upconvert your regular dvds, the answer is that HD does a better job than blu ray .

I've heard that jazz too. People who havn't invested in real HD, the PS3, Blu-Ray or even HD-DVD like to feel that what they have is good enough. Well, good enough isn't, for those of us who want the best available. Sure regular DVD's will be around for awhile but the more 27" CRT televisions get replaced with HD panels, the more educated those consumers get and in turn, more Blu-Ray players. Are the movies more money? Hell yes, just like those HD channels on Satellite or cable cost you more and people are paying that money for utter crap on those channels. Good with the bad.

So, fact is, if you make the switch to HD either in a panel or projo, you're going to want the best and when you look at a SD version of 30 Days Of Night against the Blu' on your new display... well, theat extra 5 or 10 bucks is worth the experience. Just like spending money at the theater because you want a big honkin' image. You have to pay for what you want and anyone with a CRT at 480i/p and no cash, will sometimes have sour grapes when it comes to HD.

Best thing about Craigslist and the worst thing actually, is that you can just flag it for no reason and it gets removed. No questions asked.
