In Reply to: Do you think that the short term future of TVs is............ posted by Cut-Throat on December 17, 2004 at 18:21:04:
We've had the old "academy standard" (4:3) format for standard def NTSC TVs since the 1930's.Unless you're way younger than I think you are, neither of us will live to see a new widescreen standard. 16:9 is the HD standard for the forseeable future. Many other things will change first before you and I would see a "wider" widescreen than that.
Congrats on the new TV. And forgive me, but I thought I (and others) posted a response to your aspect ratio questions way down below. If I've mixed you up with another poster who didn't understand widescreen formats and why directors used different aspect ratios, then I apologize.
