I'm not that discerning about quality of one over the other anyway, don't think I could tell them apart if I tried (disclaimer - only using 32" 100Hz CRT).
I can really tell the difference on my 28" CRT between DVB-S/DVB-T and
UHF/VHF for TV1/2. Maori need to sort out their encoding as sometimes it
is really low quality.
