Digital vs analog widescreen tv


My girlfriend and her sister want to buy a 53" tv, maybe 48" (I'm not exactly sure of these numbers). Could someone explain the differences and pros and cons between the analog and digital (or HDTV) TVs? We have an extensive VHS video collection that we'll be playing, probably more than dvd. Is one of these formats more friendly to vhs videos? Also we'll be using the standard cable.

Thanks,
Robert

With respect to internal doublers, just remember that they will "double" all of the noise, garbage, etc. With a good signal they can be very good, but they can also make a marginally acceptable signal look pretty lousy.
