I wish we could make a push for ALL broadcasts in the 16X9 format, but as they say, LOL. Any TV I purchase MUST be able to keep the 4X3 format to fill the screen by cropping the top and bottom, NOT streching it to fit the screen.
Follow Ups:
I don't even accept the top/bottom cropping. None of my more recent 16x9 TVs do that unless you choose it... I do have an old Sony that crops several rows of 4:3 pixels top/bottom, uncontrollably by me, just enough to annoy me with old movies lol; in those days it was less unacceptable on a WS display.
One thing though: if a few rows top/bottom aren't cropped, in some 4:3 digital TV broadcasts you can see some "junk" up/down there. I was told why, but forget... Many TVs (like my main one) have a slightly less optimal viewing mode that will cut them off and not do much other harm, good enough for a typical TV broadcast (after all, the best are 1080i 16x9 anyway).
There are extra lines in video that serve as a home for such things as: synchronization, vertical retrace, closed captioning data and some timecode material. Unless you are in the industry and make use out of it, a non-technical term for such things could probably be "non-picture crap".
