In Reply to: "The World at War:" a brilliant historical documentary that set an impossibly high standard. posted by tinear on January 27, 2011 at 17:16:44:
I'll keep my standard dvd set. Regardless of the amazing efforts and (according to everyone) the results a stretched image is inexcusable. I understand the decision behind it, but I don't agree with it. It's just another example of catering to and the enabling of an ignorant end user. A simple disclaimer at the beginning of each episode explaining why the original aspect ratio was retained should suffice. It may even educate those with more money than brains who would complain about a "small picture".
