Questions based on ignorance (but, hey isn't that what this is for???)...I understand how widescreen (letterbox) movies are 'compressed' onto 'normal' (4:3) TV screens. My question is, if you have a digital ready TV (16:9 ratio) how do 'normal' non letterboxed movies get displayed on the widescreen TV. Also does anyone have an opinion if it is worth it or not to buy a digital ready TV (without the digital set top box) right now? Does this give a measureably better picture for current video/DVD (non letterboxed)....Thanks for this site!! Steve
