[QUOTE="Alexis, post: 303114, member: 16911"] HD is just a higher resolution than your current TV. So when you play a DVD on your computer, it enlarges it so that it fills your monitor, which has many more pixels than a TV. That's why DVDs look better on TVs than monitors. HD films and HD TV programmes are recorded at a higher resolution (1080 pixels) so they look better. You will still need a Blue Ray or HD player though to run those discs on your Mac though. Look for trailers on the Apple site - you can watch HD trailers now. [/QUOTE]
