Actuallly Brits are probably keaner on widescreen than
you yanks unfortunately, I put it down to brainwashing
by the cinema industry. Widescreen was only introduced
because it would not transfer well to 4:3 televisions which
were taking the cinemas audiances away, why pay to go to
the cinema when you can see the same thing at home for
a fraction of the price?
Now that people are getting widescreen sets at home this 'spoiling' effect no longer works so why continue with it?
Half a picture is half the fun.
