Do those upconvert DVD players really work? Is the picture really that much better for regular DVD's?

I have a 50 inch plasma HDTV and a large collection of DVD's and would hate to have to replace them with HD or Blue Ray DVD's.

Answer
It's all a marketing gimmick.

Your Hi Def TV up samples the video sizes 480p to 1080p/720p to fit on your screen, same as the DVD players.

There is no real magic with these DVD players. You can't magically make the image quality 4-8 times better by some $5 video chip.
