We're watching our DVDs primarily on a Sony 60XS955 LCD RP tv. Been doing so for a whole month almost. Looks great.

I also watch quite a few DVDs on my 15.4" WD LCD laptop since I travel quite a bit on the road.

106" front projection for 95% of my DVD viewing.

Sometimes I might watch a DVD in the living room on my 46" Sony.

I watch them on 2 different ones, depending on what else I'm doing.

If I'm playing World of Warcraft, I usually have a movie going on my 27" 4:3 TV (at least it has the anamorphic squeeze on it). I watch a lot of movies on that TV, since I'm on the computer a lot.

If I'm just watching a movie, I watch it on my new 51" Toshiba 16:9 RPTV.
