"SD" video in the digital age

Posted by bshapiro on November 14, 2008 at 14:13:29:
I'm wondering...will the look of SD broadcasts as rendered by HD sets change after the switch to digital tv channels? I was in a hotel recently where they had digital SD (480i?) signals from the local stations playing on and LCD set and it looked WAY better than SD analog as seen on HD sets. So will this be the case generally? Are the days of crappy looking upresed SD soon to be over?
