Morgan Clemons asked:




If having to pick between the different sorts of technologies for my HDTV Widescreen wasn't enough there are the other considerations I had to think of when I went to shop for my HDTV Widescreen.

Did I actually Need a Widescreen?

Although some makers still offer HDTVs in the older square-ish formats and come with a much lower price tags. And most local TV networks, although broadcasting in high definition, still stick with the popularly known 4:3 ratio vs the cinematic ratio of 16:9. The answer was as asking myself, what's the point in going high-def without going wide? Useless . My HD experience, when it came to films and a handful of other networks broadcasting in both HD and wide formats, would then be hindered by the lack of width in my unit.

In Proportion

At first I was so thrilled I had saved up enough to purchase an HDTV Widescreen sufficiently large to just be squished in between the 2 parallel walls of my living room. Good thing I went window shopping in malls and other independent appliance stores and that I didn't depend on the pictures online. I discovered that I may actually go pointlessly wide which will be bad for close viewing as the flaws will be much more obvious. Think having a look at something with a magnifying glass. I managed to jump this hurdle by measuring the space between my couch and the spot where my HDTV Widescreen will be sitting at home and copying this distance when I'm looking at those in display in the shops.

No problem with watching shows in 4:3 ratio as I will simply set my HDTV Widescreen to either crop, stretch or make do with "pillarbox".
