Of the six HDTV formats only two are used frequently, 720p and 1080i. That doesn’t really answer the question, but it narrows the field down a bit and gives us something to work with."</i><br /><br />This is a well written article from Engadget that describes why ATSC includes 18 different standards and what the differences between 720i and 720p are. Definitely worth reading, IMO.
