Well, regardless of the internet connection speeds, I would have considered 720p to be "mid quality," but I work with video for a living and tend to be a bit of a videophile. Between work and doing stuff like messing with encoding settings for transcoding Blu-rays, I've pretty much been ruined. I practically can't watch DVDs anymore, and even Blu-rays frequently look pretty bad to me. But obviously, streaming high quality video over the internet can be expensive (and networks tend to behave badly even when you're just streaming a lot of video locally). - Jonathan M Davis
