hdcp support is important with getting new monitors as well.Vista supports it(most likely hacked in 2 seconds)
Most likely the ps3 is just a little bit too far ahead of itself.To run full quality playback you need hdmi 1.3.It isnt due in receivers etc till late this year as far as i know.It should help ensure good quality output late in the consoles life.
Once you make the shift to high definition or use large screens you really start to notice quality.The ps2 is an absolute shocker.While its graphics hold up on small displays using it with a projector really shows how crap it is compared to the other consoles.The type of cabling and quality is also important.Having a digital output is a smart move IMO and not just for movie playback.
The difference cabling does alone can be like watching hk anime or divx and r1 dvd.Getting expensive/high quality component cables can be an eye opener for the first time with dvds.Im always afraid when i see how thin the cabling is for console component cabling and wonder about quality.I guess thats one of the downsides to having custom connections like ps2.
Using hdmi/dvi its a digital connection.The theory being that its 1s and 0s and as long as the signal gets through its always the same quality.As well as keeping things digital instead of having to convert it to analog and potentially lose a little more quality.
