I’m thinking of getting a blu-ray player sometime in the near future. My current HDTV is a couple of years old and supports 720p and 1080i. It has component inputs (no HDMI).

My question is, is it worth it for me to get a blu-ray player with this TV? Or am I not going to notice a big difference from standard DVD?
