And We Wonder Why It Takes So Long...
... for the general public to accept and understand HDTV, 16:9, Aspect Ratios and the like.
This thread is from an HDTV Enthusiasts message board and is quite possibly one of the most ignorant, misinformed threads I've ever seen.
If these people are that clueless, what chance does the general public have!?
EDIT:
Ok sorry gang.
go to
www. h d t v o i c e.com (fix the spaces)
and then to:
General HDTV Discussion
and look for this thread:
Star Wars Trilogy - Anamorphic DVDs 2.39
Alternatively, you can paste this after the URL once you get to the site: showthread.php?t=12523
Sorry for the confusion.

I can't put the word "H D T V O I C E" in my post. Go ahead try it, it's blocked.
Ludicrous. I had to use ASCII characters.

One of the things that would have made it a little easier right from the start was if all DVDs were released enhanced for 16:9 and in OAR from the beginning. The need to switch the player for your display type is one thing for them to grasp and but it's another to need to switch zoom modes for non enhanced and enhanced discs because anamorphic support isn't standard. The only time a disc should not be anamorphic is if the OAR is 1.33:1.
