No matter how long it will be before you can buy a 16x9 digital TV,
you still want to buy anamorphic DVD's.   Otherwise, you're going to
be awfully disapointed when viewing your "Pan-and-Scam" DVD's on your

The site you really need to go to is this one:

http://www.thedigitalbits.com/articles/anamorphic/welcome.html
