The single biggest reason for eventually upgrading to a high def video format is that it bypasses the existing television signals (NTSC and PAL) and allows us all to actually watch movies at their normal 24 fps speed. I'm considering not ever buying a dvd again and just saving my money for trips to the theater until I can get an hdtv and whatever format has (hopefully) won the battle by then.
