Totally agree qith the comments being made above.
I've a reasonable a/v setup. I've also got fast broadband so streaming isn't an issue. I can live with watching most things in SD as my Vu+ 720p spits the picture out and I suppose I don't get bad upscaling. Certainly football and rugby is watchable as well as Wheeler Dealers of course. But I did trial Netflix and found that the TV I have got (it's 55") really accentuated the graininess of the blacks even when using HD. And my experience of IPTV streaming is even worse. So at the moment I'm happy with the picture quality of 720p/SD over any streaming source.
I'm also happy with my Plex server setup for streaming bit torrent sourced films. I only download a film if it is over 2GB in size and is 1080p HD and NOT CAM source. Seem to get a great picture quality that way although sound is average (can't be bothered downloading these 30GB Bluie Ray ripped monsters).
