I have a Blu Ray only because when I did the theatre room Sharp had a new Blu Ray player that also upconverts and plays my regular DVDs. I really don't see much difference honestly between the actual Blu Ray (1080p)movie and one of my older DVDs that have been "upconverted" (720p-1080i). And that's on a 106" screen, 7 foot roughly side to side.
And yes in Holland/Europe EVERYTHING is expensive. I just spent 2 weeks in Italy and though things are relatively the same price when you take into account the conversion of the US dollar to the euro things become very costly.
And let me add that my satellite provider has hi-def channels and those channels give out amazing picture quality even though they are only 480p.
