Default DVD player VS blu-ray player ?

I was curious at this point in time, Is there any advantages of having a regular DVD player over a blu-ray player these days for standard DVDs? While i have no issues with playing my standard dvds in my panasonic blu-ray players, It seems that a regular DVD player can still address some of the specific navigation features such as hitting the number buttons for chapter and scene navigation. as well as a few other minor differences.

One more thing, I don't notice as much difference of DVD video playing at 480p upscaled by the tv as playing a DVD in a bd player and letting the player upscale. In fact, I find that feeding a direct 480 signal to the tv provides better results for SD content.

Just thought i'd see what people have to say, since many people still have a large dvd library still. My choice about dvd upconversion is simply upgrade to the blu-ray source when it becomes available. It's the only real way I noticed a full difference in content.
