A new CEA study, HDTV: You Have the Set, But Do You Have the Content?, found that 44 percent of HDTV owners receive HD programming.

So 56 percent of HDTV owners don't receive HD programming. Interesting.

The study revealed one of the primary reasons consumers are buying HDTVs is not to watch television programming but rather to improve their movie and gaming experience. Currently, the most prevalent device connected to an HDTV not receiving HD programming is a DVD player.

People buy HDTVs to improve their movie experience, but they're not buying players that output HD? I blame the format war. And even though BD has better studio support, they don't have complete studio support. I think a lot of folks will hold off until "Brand X" finally goes away.
