Weird - no-one seems to have a problem moving to lower quality LCD/Plasma from the higher quality CRT. If you can take that much of a quality hit and be a happy viewer then the difference between standard DVD and BR/HD is not even going to be discernible unless your TV is very low quality.
As for disc capacity - who cares - there are far better back-up and archive options available - anyone writing that amount of data to an optical drive really needs to think about their plan again.
New shiny thing - please buy me
