    Don't know how recent this is but noticed this at Argos.

    I know long-term future aint great but this is a good opportunity to get the player very cheap plus I have seen the HD films being sold off cheap in Gamestop.

    Have never seen a HD movie, is the picture/sound much better?

    Would the difference be similar to the picture difference between a normal telly and a HD telly when playing games on the Xbox.

    Deffo worth it, especially with the price of HD-DVDs at the mo.. for €100 u can get a player n a stack of movies... Well worth the cash. I've my player hooked up to my projector at home. HD movies on a 100" screen, Sweet:D:D
