"The truth is, most people out there really do not care about aspect ratio. This one record store I go to keeps all of their new DVDs behind the counter. When you want a title, and it is available both ways, the last three times I've been in there, all the people asked said they wanted the full frame when asked which version they wanted it. I know it is hard to believe, but we are in the minority on this issue."
Let me teach you a little something about business. When you sell something you don't go to one store and ask the guy behind the counter what he sells most. You look at your demographic, i.e. the US. Then you look at what people prefer based on FACT not opinion. The FACT is that MOST people prefer Widescreen. Look at any sales for a DVD from week to week. The Widescreen outsells the fullscreen 95% of the time. Take those numbers and mutliply them buy the 1000's and the difference becomes HUGE. WE are NOT in the minority. WE are the MAJORITY!!! The facts back it up and unfortunately I have a logical mind. So opinions aside....look at the facts.
