+1 for MPC-HC though, it works awesome - and I can't help but think it's because I used the x64 version. VLC worked ok, but was increbibly instable overall (again, I'm thinking for the opposite reason - it was native 32 bit).. The animated CGI movies (Horton, Nemo etc.) could not look any better. By the time my daughter figures out it's not 1080p - she better be earning enough to buy her own crap! When I toss in the original Star Wars titles (IV-VI), you can notice a tiny difference there - but again not worth the upgrades in TV/Blu-Ray. It looks good enough for this guy!

if you know what the differences in HDTV and SD are, and you watch 1080p blu-ray on a properly calibrated HDTV, you'll never turn back. blu-ray looks so much more awesome for CGI movies (just watched Monster vs Aliens, and damn it was almost 3d with out being a 3d version)
