Blue ray with 720p or 1080i - Blu-ray Forum

billiards74 · 11-25-2007, 10:19 PM

Just recently purchased a new LG 50" plasma that is capable of 720p or 1080i. Sorry folks, just couuldn't shell out 2500.00 for the 1080p. I'm trying to make up my mind about buying a Blue ray player. I'm wondering if it's really gioing to be a step up from the HD dvd and regular broadcast.

Any input would be appreciated.

Yes.

I purchased the Target Black Friday Olevia 1080i TV and did the same research you're conducting now. Blu Ray still looks 10000000x better than a standard DVD , even on 720p/1080i. I absolutely love my S300. Regardless, your friends will be in awe either way.

I was specifically refering to HD broadcast i.e. HD cable or HD satellite and HD DVD's as opposed to Blue Ray.

OK, BLU ray. Do I have a clarity/sharpness advantage purchasing a Blu ray player in conjunction with my 720p/1080i plasma?

Again, thanks.
