As has always been the case with SD, the larger the screen, the lower the picture qua;ity

You've got about 300k pixels at 480i. Spread em out over a widescreen that's 46" diagonal or above and ouch. That's probably an oversimplified (and a good chance, technically wrong) explanation but that's how I understand it. Thankfully, we have very few SD channels with ATT U-Verse. Unfortunately, one, IFC, has several shows we follow.
I guess the best comparison would be a crappily recorded cassette played over a bombox vs the same cassette played over a $20k system with a top of the line Nakamichi used as a transport.
