A 4:3 TV is a better value, and 16:9 TV's are definitely priced at a premium. You can get the same size 16:9 image on a brand of 4:3 TV as on the same brand 16:9 TV for less money. But 16:9 TV's look much slicker, they don't cost THAT much more, and I only watch DVD's anyway (so I get less black/grey bars this way). Usually the 16:9 TV's have a few extra features that relate to higher definition use.
