| Re: Do I need a HD DVD player? Update and more questions:
I was wrong on the HD-D2 price but not by much, it's $349.95. So, based on that I can get the HD-XA2 for about $200 more. Is the newer unit worth the extra bucks?
Neither my receiver nor TV have HDMI inputs so that feature wouldn't help me at this point. I'm wondering if I can just keep my Oppo and get the HD-D2 for HD DVDs.
One more thing I'm not understanding. If I use component output for video do I not get full benefit of the HD resolution? Seems like I read that somewhere. I would be using component for video and optical for audio.
Thanks for any more input.
