"It's better!"
I mean, my parents bought an HDTV knowing next to nothing about HD. The cost came down enough though, and it was affordable so they were like "Yeah, we should get a better tv", whatever "better" means. I'm starting to think that maybe Kutaragi was right about that whole "people will buy anything because it's there to be bought" comment.

Perhaps. My folks are pretty far from rich but they have the tv. Then again, they aren't exactly voicing any major desires for a new HD player.
So, yeah. IAWTP
oh god

How long have they had that TV? You know that HDtv's have been around for like 7 years at least now right? It's not like they're jumping on the early bandwagon here. |
They've had it for a few months now, maybe as many as six, and I wasn't meaning to imply that they were early adopters. Simply that hey, regular folks are buying the fancy tvs now that the prices are coming down so maybe they'll be buying the new HD players a little later on as well.
