720p or 1080p?

with a monitor not having a resolution of 1080p it wouldn't be as nice when playing 1080p videos on it, since it's gonna get downscaled back to whatever the monitor's resolution is, although some results to a sharper image but still its not a good idea.
but based on some of what you've said, i can say "go ahead" and grab 1080p if its available, otherwise you can just grab 720p, theres really no point of arguing 720p vs 1080p without a reason of "why not".
without a "why not" its always 720p < 1080p.

Download both a 720p and 1080p release of the same show and compare. This is a matter of preference, and you should decide what you should choose by yourself and not through everyone elses mixed opinions.
A good 720p encode isn't by miles worse than a 1080p one, it just comes down to what you want, maybe for a particular show in question. Some shows that offer more than vector characters might be worth snatching the 1080p release for, other ones that are mostly just the same vector stuff throughout may be not.

All depends on what you want. I don't really care about it personally, it is a cartoon after all and will for the most part just look a tiny bit sharper, but I often snatch 1080p releases anyways. I don't need to worry about space or bandwidth and generally snatch what I will be able to seed better.

^ like i said, without a "why not" its always 720p < 1080p, simply put 1080p is the highest quality you can get out of the box, otherwise grab blue-ray ISO files.
its like asking "which car is better, a Ferrari or a rustbucket? nothing is an issue, i just want the better car"
