It is possible that you have not seen the true high-def capacity of the system.
I am sure that most of us would be interested in what you find out. Please share the resullts with us when you do. -

And even though some characters may be indiscernible, the SD image may still look sharper than the HD image.
All HD images do not contain this much detail, but for as long as I have been watching, things have been improving. As of now, I still see a random mix of HD sources and SD sources in many HD programs. I see HD Keying over SD Backgrounds. I see massive amounts of artifacts on some programs. No wonder there is confusion. But I think it will improve. The potential is there. These things take time.
As for BluRay/HD-DVD releases, they may have to improve as well.
While I see HD improving, I also notice a decline in SD channel quality. Some of them look like poor downconversions of bit starved HD channels; all the artifacts with less resolution.Life is better when you focus on the signals instead of the noise.
