Along with any High Definition Television set, especially one that is over 50 inches, you will be very glad to have it in your living room. But also with these sets, your cable tv or your satellite or whatever you have, will be a little fuzzy and not look too great, but it's still worth it. Now when you play a dvd or play Playstaion or XBox or Wii or whatever, you will be more than happy with it. Mostly because they give more video information than satellite. If you own a regular square tv, than widescreen movies will drive you mad, with this tv, they will make you happy, cause the widescreen takes up the full screen, the full screen movies have the letter boxes to the side. The only thing not great about this tv is that it is very heavy. One person can not move it alone.
