I also agree, but I can be very ignorant on this. HDTV is a 'computer' display. And don't see any banding on my computer monitor which runs with 50Hz mains and 85Hz VGA. Or should I see, and what I should look for?

Also majority of HDTV displays are non-tube based (if hum bars are tube-based problem). Generally Plasma, TFT/LCD or DLP is the main choise for high definition. And all those tend to sample input signal (if analog), run some algorithms (deinterlace, pulldown det. and inv. telecines) and store frame into internal framebuffer and output it for your pleasure.

Best regards, Jori
