the better question would be does leaving a good old dvd in standard definition look better then upconverting it, i haven't comared the 2, so i really couldn't say, but it would depend heavily on the quality of the upconverting chip used in your dvd player

Exactly. Everything I have seen, regardless of which upconverting DVD player they are talking about, the difference is HUGE going from standard progressive scan DVD quality to an upconverted DVD.
So upconverting is better than standard, but obviously nowhere near HD-DVD/Blu-Ray which I won't spend the money on now anyway.
