I've been watching quite a bit of HD-DVD on my 65" Hitachi rear projection TV and the more I do I have come to the conclusion that the picture quality is way better than my Sanyo PLV-Z5 LCD projector. The black levels are not even close. Neither is the contrast. The CRTs simply destroy the LCDs in every way. I've seen the 1080p Plasmas at stores and I can't see the improvement much at all when it comes to HD-DVD. I can't find much wrong with the picture at all when viewed with a 1080p source. I do notice some flicker when viewing 1080i broadcasts but I really don't care that much about TV. I bought the TV for movies and it is delivering the goods. Are the only benefits of Plasmas and LCDs the weight and depth?

This the TV I picked up.
