Pandering to people who don't understand rather than educating people who don't understand is never a good course of action.
I agree with the idea that if these pan & scan boxes say "No black Bars!" as if it were a virtue then OAR boxes should say "The Whole picture with nothing cut out!", equal opportunity propaganda and all that.
Plus, is it more or less expensive to produce a Pan & Scan transfer with all the moving of the frame that has to be done than it is to produce a high quality widescreen/OAR 16:9 enhanced transfer?
