PS3 blu-ray on SD-CRT

[admin_exported]

Im looking to get a PS3 for its many uses, but Im curious, I have a standard def CRT with componant input, would I be able to play a blu-ray movie allbeit in standard def? And if so, would it still look better than a DVD due to better encoding and much higher bitrate?
Thx!

It will look exactly the same.

That would surprise me because even a superbit DVD looks better than a normal DVD.

Then you need to ask WHF team.
I tried a Tosh hddvd player once on a sd-crt,didn't notice any difference.
