This is a silly argument.

Without a good display capable of supporting 1080p natively, there is no point in investing in Blu-Ray media and equipment.

With the necessary items, Blu-Ray is stunning.

You are correct. I have two HDTVs each with a PS3 serving as my Blu-ray player. In my bedroom is an older 32" 720p LCD. On this TV the difference between Blu-ray and DVD is negligible. In my living room is a newer 46" 1080p LED. On this TV, the difference between the two formats is quite substantial with Blu-ray obviously being far superior. It's like the difference between DVD and VHS.

Honestly, I don't even really like to watch DVDs anymore. I only rent BD from Redbox and Netflix.
