The only vcr's that come close are actually upscaling dvd/vcr players.Sony and Philips make these.It may be possible to use them to upscale Standard Definition tapes.
VCRs do not support HDTV. You will not be able to record HD. You will be able to record a converted HD signal but will lose the quality.
HD shows will show up on a HDTV without any HD services through the cable or satellite companies. HD shows won't show up on any other kind of tv without subscribing to HD through the cable or satellite company.

An Xbox 360 is capable of playing HD movies as long as you have an "Xbox 360 HD player." The Xbox 360 itself can be viewed and played in the HD content. You will need some HD equipment which includes a HD TV (some will say HD ready - meaning 720p, others will say full HD - meaning 1080p). After getting a TV, use a HDMI cable to link your xbox to the TV. This will now show you HD. Any video game can be viewed at the full 1080p HD.
720p is one of the HD formats so it will display HD quality. Although most Bluray content is generated as a 1080 signal, some is produced as 720p. Either will work on any HD television although using a television with a native 1080 line display will deliver the best resolution available for any current HD content.
Nope, maybe in the future. (i'm not making any promises)
In a short answer; yes! A sky plus HD box is sky plus, but has the ability to view HD content from Sky. Typically the Sky+ HD boxes have a bigger hard drive as HD content uses lots of disk space.
And HD dvd is a dvd that has it's movie or TV show in HD format, compatible with any plasma or HDTV. Similar to a Blu-Ray dvd, it can store huge amount a data.
HD television has been around since the early 1990s. Both HD televisions and HD material to show on them remained largely in the hands of broadcast and equipment companies for many years. Until 2003 - 2004 it remained largely a proof of concept with very little HD content available. The explosion in HD televisions happened around 2007 or 2008 when HD televisions became much more affordable and broadcasters were delivering reasonable amounts of HD material.
Yes they can. They will operate on any HD television although a television with a native resolution of 1080 lines will provide a higher quality image for any Bluray disc that uses 1080 content.
The best way to stream HD content is to firstly have the right facilities such as a fast internet connection and secondly picking the right website to stream from.
High definition signals cannot be played back on standard definition televisions. However, some HD equipment is fitted with something called a "down converter" that outputs SD signals from HD content. If you are lucky enough to have that feature in your HD source, then you can wtch HD content on an SD TV. Remember, the quality you will see is SD, even though the original source is HD.
