Best Answer

VGA is analog while HDMI is digital; one would need to make such a conversion if connecting two otherwise incompatible devices. Blu-ray Players and PS3s, for instance, generally have HDMI outputs, so an HDMI-to-VGA conversion would be necessary to display the video on older VGA display hardware.
