Why AREN'T you watching HD or DON'T have/care for HDTV?
Subject came up tonight, most of my family/friends just simply don't care for it, nothing to do with price, quality...just simply think it's unnecessary! LOL

Just got me a 360 and was looking at some of the HD movies out there. I want Batman Begins so bad, also V for Vendetta and Serenity are great movies as well. However I'm too poor for the HD attachment and for a HD T.V. For now I'll have to play on my LCD monitor until I can afford a HD TV. Thankfully they seem to be coming down in price pretty quickly.

I have an HDTV, but mainly for my 360. But for tv, i dont watch enough to warrant getting Bells HD receiver - so just have the SD one. I dont care...because it would be a waste of money for me.

Bought a new HDTV LCD from Future Shop recently .. finally got the free included Rogers starter kit and signed up for the free 10 months of HD programming w/ HD PVR rental (requires basic digital cable). Now waiting for my HD PVR to arrive in the mail .. i'm finally moving to high definition!

Because I don't care to pay that much extra for a marginal improvement in image quality.

The programming still sucks. At least if we had some movie channels...
The only HD channels worth watching is like Discovery and that's it.
I have Rogers HD but I rarely watch the channels._______________

the reason why i am still sticking with my CRT is becos the one that I am using still works fine..... money issue is another thing. Sooner or later, everyone will use HDTV, it takes time .
