On the other hand, WFLD only runs local commercials and syndicated shows
made in SD in 4:3--everything else is in 16:9.
The eccentric part I've noticed with NBC is that all of their scripted
programming and ads are in 16:9--news and reality are in 4:3. Haven't
really checked on sports lately.
I would imagine that somebody somewhere has done some research and
determined that x% of households now watch on widescreen televisions (or at
least TV's that are usually switched into widescreen mode), where "x" is a
large number that's fairly close to 100.
Can you still buy 4:3 TVs? Rear
