Yesterday, I went to reliance digital, and I must say most of the Sony TV's had better crispy picture than Samsung, especially >=40inch. But both are very good, you wont regret.

He is right, normal cable doesn't provides good quality, max 480p I think. But I would suggest you to get an HD DTH connection, preferably Tata SKy+, or Airtel.

PS- Bada hai to behtar hai :D

i also second sujay. HD DTH would be a very good option. whats DEN by the way ?

a small summary of HD DTH providers :

1. airtel - one of the best HD PQ ! though a bit low on sound.

2. tata sky - good PQ with high sound.

3. videocon - arguably has the best HD channel packages currently. worth a look !

4. dish tv - sorry, no idea.

also, if you can spare some more money, one option is getting the HD DTH with PVR/DVR (its an in-built recorder in the STB unit itself, through which you can record/pause live tv, etc). for eg, tata sky+ HD comes with a PVR in-built.

P.S. - though your parents at first might be little apprehensive in getting an HD DTH, but when they will see those channels playing on your TV, they will thank themselves for getting it :grin:

DEN-
DEN Networks Limited is India’s leading cable TV distribution company reaching an estimated 11 million households across key states and cities of India. DEN serves the majority of cable TV households in states like Delhi, Uttar Pradesh and Karnataka and has a significant presence in important cities in Maharashtra (including Mumbai), Gujarat, Rajasthan, Haryana and Kerala. DEN also has a 50-50 joint venture with News Corporation’s Star TV group called Star DEN...

DEN

To be very frank I have never experienced HD DTHs. But I'm using Tata sky from 5 yrs, and it has got excellent service, although its costly a bit, but truly worth it. Its remote is most powerful I have ever seen. Apart from that heard good reviews about Airtel.

PS- I too recommended PVR (recording + live/pause), thats why Tata sky+

Even Tata sky is costly. I pay around 240 for super saver pack + 45/mnth for colors+123 etc lifestyle pack. Total costs around 290. But I recharge annual pack, so for cost of 10 months, 12 moths of viewing. Cable is obviously 100 rs cheaper than DTH's. BTW you mentioned 150, the rate for DEN or normal cable? Your viewing dist sounds fine. Get a HD pack.

PS- For more info on viewing distances and its other aspects, see this Chart: 1080P Does Matter - CarltonBale.com

Totally depends on your budget. Using cable you will miss out HD channels.
