My family have a HD-TV and it's not worth it to be frank, if I where you I wouldn't buy into HD until 2009 at least.

But you won't be watching any HD tv without a some sort of HDTV receiver + someone transmitting it to you - I only know of Sky which do HD tv. And you need the SkyHD receiver + the subscription to their service.

I have a HDTV but no SkyHD service, so the tv is nearly the same(because the programs arn't broadcast in HD). But films are awesome on it. Especially with our surround sound home cinema set-up, it is worth it. IMHO



* vaccination enjoyed the harry potter trailer.

*pats monitor and new GTS*

I don't even have Sky, i use freeview, and yes i know it isn't HD. I use it to watch films and play xbox 360 (which is in 1080i HD) so it does get some use out of it :p

I don't fancy paying £300 for the SkyHD box, £10 per month for SkyHD subscription PLUS the normal Sky subscription (which depends on package but starts at something like £15 per month) :P

Plus as you said it's not even implemented here yet hence you should wait.


It is implemented, you can watch HD films, or buy the subscription + box for SkyHD. So there's no need to wait, you can have HD now, it's just expensive.

I was talking about how we don't have our Terrestrial TV in HD yet

Also Blu-Ray and HDTV is basically not here.


Well yeah, but that's terrestrial, HD is available, you just  gotta pay(a lot) for it.

as for blu-ray, it's nearly here, you can buy Blu-ray players. (though they are very expensive)

but meh. your right in the sense that HD isn't exactly widely available.

Talking about HD, Elephants Dream is a computer animation film made with Open Source Programs.

The film itself is about 10 minutes.

It's also released in Full 1080p HD resolution.

We have Rogers HD Cable, and it looks pretty damn good on our HD-Capable 4:3 TV, but its a pain since we don't actually have a wide screen TV. Dad watches sports with it.
