Re: Bandwidth Caps
I read standard definition will be the initial offering with select high definition programs at a higher price. Keep in mind 1080i is not much different in resolution from 720p. Actually they are almost identical. |

After seeing HD @ 1080p, 720p or 1080i is depressing.

Perfume at 720p |

See pic? That's 720p(which is more or less the same as 1080i) on this laptop's screen.
To me, this is depressing - YMMV.

| My TV has a native resolution of 1280x720, so anything higher than 720p is a waste. Now, if my TV had a native resolution of 1920x1080, 720p wouldn't look as great as 1080p.
Man dadkins, you act like everything has to conform to you! Just leave us minions be... |
