This is a question I've wondered about for some time. As most of us know, while we have plenty of HD channels, everything SD is 4:3. Which is most of the channels on a digital cable dial. Now, some of these, especially movie channels (think Encore, or Showtime Pacific Love 4, etc.) are not HD shipped stations.
But it makes me wonder why there isn't a way to ship these in non-HD 16:9 (think DVD). In Europe and elsewhere, most content is this way. I'm just wondering how difficult, or why there has been a delay in doing such a thing, as any TV sold in the last, I don't know, 5-7 years has been 16:9
