@Sam
Actually, the thing about Sony overdriving their electronics was told to me by a techie at a Displays and Lighting conference! I'm inclined to believe that there's some truth in the statement.

And there is compression on a DVD. How else would you fit 2 hours of video onto a 4.7GB disc? It's not as severe as broadcast video, but it's still compressed. Uncompressed digital video, even at SD, produces prodigious amounts of data.

Edit - sorry if this sounds argumentative. It's not meant to!

@bill - good call on the Samsungs. They do make excellent LCDs. I'm using two at the moment, as it happens.
