It would benefit if you could put a whole season on one disc in standard definition. I'm guessing most older programs were not shot on film, so they would have to go through the same upconverting process of standard dvd's when played on HD.
One of the earliest examples that I could find of a tv show using film was Dragnet, which began airing in the 60's.
