The only difference seems to lie in where the image is scaled to 1080p, the dvd player or the TV.  If your TV sucks, then maybe you'd want a 1080p unit.  But if your TV sucks, you probably won't notice the difference anyway.  Purists would probably rather take the 1080i output from a top notch DVD player and scale it in their own separate dedicated scaler.  ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[tyboulder]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sep 17th 2007 1:37AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
