Can you notice the difference on TSN HD and regular TSN?

Admittedly, my TV is a native 720p DLP. And my HD-DVD player upconverts the DVDs. When I compared my copy of the Matrix from the ultimate DVD collection to the HD-DVD copy, there was a slight difference in that more fine detail was visible on the HD-DVD version. Again, not a very big difference. I would expect to notice more of a difference on a suitably sized native 1080p set since my HD-DVD player does handle 1080p.
The difference is much, much more noticeable on broadcasts of course. 720p TSN HD looks tons better than stretched 480i TSN largely due to the aspect ratio. Even comparing proper 4:3 SD TSn to HD TSN shows a very noticeable difference.
But I don't think likening SD broadcasts to HD broadcasts as a comparison for comparing DVD to HD-DVD/Bluray is valid. Seems like comparing apples and oranges to me, personally.
