Most people must be Helen Keller blind, then, because 480 looks like absolute shit on Popdigr's TV. To the point we removed those channels from the line-up.

It does it you compare 720 to a 489 screen. But have someone walk into a room, only view one screen, then report the resolution. They cannot.

In fact, many assume a bigger screen TV is HD when it is only 480. A difference only apparent when both are compared. Or if known are what details to look for.

So yes. The difference is apparent if viewing two separate channels. However only view one channel and say what its resolution is. Most cannot without making a comparison,
