Is HDMI connection better than Component?


50" plasma with HD satellite & thinking of purchasing Toshiba HD-DVD. IS HDMI the only connection for a HD signal. and if so if i buy a HD dvd player i guess i should not use the component outputs...

Steve,
Additionally.....Suggest you get the Toshiba HD-DVD player from somewhere that you can take it back, with no penalty/restocking fee. You may want to after trying it.
It is very s-l-o-w in responding. And not ALL movies are that good on HD-DVD. My upconverting DVD player is almost as good as SOME of the releases look. (I've got a reasonably decent HD projector on a 120" screen)
If set on going HD-DVD, I would recommend that you wait on the next generation of players. IMHO, Both HD-DVD AND BlueRay blew it BIG TIME with their new hardware releases.
Good luck and good listening!
