I just recently purchased this TV. While I love the picture on some channels, I really do not like it on others, I even notice major differences between different HBO channels. The picture via DVD component video inputs is fantastic. I am using standard satelite input, not HD. I had considered the 50 inch Sony LCD TV. Would I still have these issues on LCD since I am not using HD satelite. Is this just a standard issue for all big screens when not utilizing High def. I still have 30 days to return this for a different option. Thanks for any input.
