"I thought there was only 720p, not 1080p"

That's the current American system. The MUSE LDs were an analog hi-definition TV system in Japan, IIRC.

Besides, the American system does go all the way to 1080p. The group that made the spec knew it would be technically difficult to achieve that in broadcasting, but included it under the assumption that the technical hurdles would eventually be worked out.
