In USA, the channels are far from 90% 720p. Many are 1080i. I don't have the stats right here, but I believe it is something like 60% 1080i, 40% 720p. Of the 4 major broadcast networks, it is 2 and 2. And the providers are beginning to stream on demand shows in 1080p.Um last i check netflix Hulu stream in 720P and 90 percent of the tv stations stream in it as well so your basicly saying that most of HD providers have blown it.. come back and try again.
Why on earth would you sit there? Why not just say 200 feet through 6 walls if you are going to ask ridiculous questions.Actually it depends on how far you are seated from your HDTV. Can you tell the difference between 720p and 1080p on a 52" TV from 20 feet away?
