There'd be no point in replacing your DVDs anyway. A lot of films won't have any better source material than has been used for the DVD transfer, and there simply won't be any noticeable quality gain to be had from an HD version. Sure, there's such things as interpolation, and fixing the occasional, bizarre luma/chroma artifacts that you seem to get as part of the DVD format, but on the whole, for any film that is more than a few years old, you already have the best version that exists.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
