High Definition is WAY over-rated

I JUST DONT UNDERSTAND why are people so overly obsessed about HD - as if HD is something new and it is truly revolutionary to have in your living room. HD has always been around - but just in different branding or among the different scope of people.


The SDs (Standard Definition - as in the non-HD) of today were referred to as HDs of 1936 and were used by the BBC...... because in those times, the SDs of our current time were far superior than the SD of their old times......... but it was just not *CALLED* a bloody HD during that time.


HD is nothing guys...... it's just another screen resolution like 640x480 , 800x600 , 1024x768 where HD fits in 1280x720 (for 720p) and 1920x1080 (for 1080p)....... and this is bound to improve further with time like it has been improving over the last decades...... there is nothing so uber-revolutionary about a HD thing.
