I resisted HDTV's and big T.V's in general forever. It seemed to be a concession to suburbia or representative of the middle of the road. I reluctantly bought a small one so that i could watch "Yellow Submarine" on Blu-Ray. I'm proud that the only Blu-Ray's i've ever bought were that and "Performance."
i got hooked on streaming with that gateway tube (yeah, yeah i know it doesn't have tubes now). When inherited a large Hitachi, i had use the interface of my Sony Blu-Ray. This was a little iffy. No more YouTube, Hulu stopped updating.....I had to buy a FIRE STICK!! OMG, true HD is AMAZINGGGGG!! Of course, as a music lover. I'm searching out good concert footage. No wonder people are so onery about buying their music. It sucks but it's still cool. Sadly, it'll probably cage alot of great stuff in the past. I've been wrong before. I thought home taping would kill music. If they said that on a Hulu ad, I'd believe it.
