So, the World Wrestling Entertainment Corp. finally moved everything to HD about two weeks ago, and they've successfully ran every television show they have (including their Raw A.M. if anyone cares) and the Royal Rumble, all in HD.
In an age where we're coming to a turn for technology for viewing programs on television, I ask the question.. does it really make a difference? I currently am not with W.W.E. HD, I currently do not subscribe to USA HD, and I didn't order the Royal Rumble.. in HD.
Thus far, on my "regular" television, the only thing I've noticed thats any different.. is they enlarged the screen, so the stuff to the left and right gets cut off to people without HD t.v.'s.. they've added new sets, with a ton of lightbulbs, so people without HD t.v.'s get screwed with a huge piece of blur whenever wrestlers come through the entrances now.. and from what I understand, due to the "technology" of HD, when a camera is too close to the ring, you can clearly hear the wrestlers talking to each other about how the match will progress.
So I ask.. anyone who has an HDTV, please chim in and explain how much better this is to those of us without it. Because to me, I feel like its absurd and ******ed to shell out over $1,000.00 to buy an HDTV, then have to pay that much extra for the programming and stations (be it to the satelite, or cable companies) to broadcast in HD. Especially when I recall a day and age, when watching t.v. didn't used to cost me over $200.00 a month.
SO, W.W.E. HD.. good, or bad? Discuss..
