I see one of us is not understanding the issue here. The OP specifically referenced people promoting the DVD upconverting benefits of some HD-DVD players. Looking strictly at that aspect, then it is fanboyism to simply dismiss the claim. I'm in no way defending any aspect of HD-DVD or making a ridiculous statement such as upconverted DVD is "good enough". Blu-ray was and is the clear winner, however as DVD upconverters, the Toshiba players were excellent. That's the only point I'm trying to make.
