Advantages: Good quality dvd's like HD Disadvantages: None
...have recently purchased the new Toshiba 42ZV555DB LCD TV which upscales SD signals to near HD quality. I was a bit sceptical but the difference is unbelievable. The pictures are so sharp.

Could have done with the ability to record, but I use another player to record my shows. If you want a recorder aswell as a dvd upscaler then Sony do a very good model for about £90.
When you play your DVD's you can really start to appreciate the technology inside this ...
