Have you upgraded to HD? I agree that the old ntsc is no where near as pleasurable as HD. I was just like you too until I upgraded. I lost interest in film broadcasts in the late 80's when laserdiscs went to original aspect ratio and hbo didnt. But now I have multiple movie channels all showing widescreen and some even in 2.35:1 aspect, I am back into film broadcasts more than ever. Dont judge "television" only by what you currently have in terms of playback and services. Its gotten way way better in ways you probably least expected. jco

Your definition of pleasure differs slightly from mine. I think I watch about three hours of TV a week and most of that is repeats. If it wasn't for my stash of British comedy DVDs I'd just about sell the television. - Dave -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
