Does anyone care about high definition?

High-definition DVD players have finally arrived. They are offering unprecedented picture quality. But movies and video clips are increasingly being watched on low-definition portable devices like video iPods, handheld media players or even mobile phones. So has high-definition DVD come to late? Many companies have found that, generally, people are willing to trade quality for portability. Quality isn't everything, and many people feel that these high definition companies are making alot of fuss about nothing. If the actual clip/film being watched is rubbish itself, then high quality would'nt make any difference. There was a time when cinemas were hugley interested in making there screens high definition, but these days people arn't that bothered by cinema quality, the screen is so big and the sound so loud it dosnt really matter. I personally feel to much fuss is being made, but the sales figures will tell.
