I know there is a thing at the mo about blu ray vs hd tv.... but i think hd tv is going to end up more popular, for the tv anyways

Not sure but blue-ray vs hd tv is irrelevant? Your only question is whether you want a standard analogue tv or a digital tv or a high defintion digital tv??

Once you have analogue vs digital decided, blue-ray and hd will (should?) both play the same? IOW--the media war is over the player and not the viewer.

As I understand it, not much difference in even these players with screen dimensions below 27 inches and you are paying attention? I have to agree with reason though--I've got a Panasonic Big Screen that is 16 years old and won't break. Picture only slightly dimmer than brand new. I expected it to break 8 years ago and it just keeps going. When it goes, I'll be getting a high definition monitor and get my signal/tuner from my cable provider. /// bobbo.
