Neither. There's nothing I want to watch bad enough to spend that kind of time on it. 
Movies are for the most part crap these days, way too much CG, few good stories that aren't rushed into finish to meet budgets, it's just awful.

For movies, we either netflix streaming (assuming they never raise their prices, that'll work for us for ever) or if we want better graphics, I'll order up SD or HD DVD's, encode them, and watch them when we get the opportunity, then nuke it. 

For regular TV, most things are fine in SD so I record them in SD. Anything that should be HD, I record the HD version. If it only comes in HD and we're not going to watch it on an HD TV, we don't care, we live with it :).
