Are Americans on widescreen yet?
Discussion
To Be serious you have to remember that many Americans did have "big" screens already. However Widescreen takeup was limited as many citizens of the US thought that They were losing part of the picture. Mainly because initially the "Anamorphic" Stretching of the picture was not a transmitted thing as in the UK. Their pickup of the sound was slightly ahead of the UK. Although Yorkshire TV did produce all of their Drama output in Dolby Pro Logic and digital as soon as they could.

There are still parts of the States where the citizens think they lose part of their soul if you take their picture, so seeing it demonstrated on a widescreen telly must've absolutely terrified them!PaulG40 said:
