i cannot stand that. if its 4:3 i watch it in 4:3. If its 16:9 I watch it in 16:9

Ditto! Except a friend just purchased a Sammy 42" LCD and the user manual says not to watch anything letterboxed. My Sony is 4 years old and more than half the programs I watch are letterboxed. So far, no problems and I figure it doesn't owe me anything now anyway. I can't believe Samsung would "force" the user to stretch every 4x3 channel!
