It all depend of what you are looking at - when you are looking at the TV - That be normal TV, or High Def TV... After all - you can always shut off the TV, and read a good book instead... Or you can use - if you have one of the more fancy TVs out there you tube to have tonnes of educational programs to look at (BBC have a lot of educational programs spanning from spiders to the universe).... So you are in no need of looking at garbage when you have the TV on really...

Using a site that wants to sell HDTVs, but which uses the formula, you need 720p

Yes, and that is the choice consumers are making now. Full HD or HD-ready
