Trying a little too hard to sell me a TV that frankly, I couldnt really afford... I specifically told the person I'm window shopping, and I respect the fact that you make commission on what you sell, but there are other people in the store that really could use your help....
Well, since he decided that he wanted to ride my skirt tails, he noticed that I stayed away from the widescreen tv's. I told him, I (personal opinion here) despise widescreen tv's, as the fact that there are so few channels that broadcast in 16:9. The other reason is I dont like the stretched picture on standard services.
He then chimed up and said, well shows what you know, all broadcast companies are gonna be broadcasting in16:9 by the end of the year.
At this point, I turned around and walked out the store. Now, being that I am an installer for a local TV and satellite companies, I should have heard this very IMPORTANT peice of information. However, I have also learned over the years, that installers are treated like mushrooms... (if you wondering about that statement, google on how to grow mushrooms)
So I come to here. Answer me this please. Is this true? or was he just trying to make some damn money? I know that in 2008-2010 that all channels are supposed to be digital broadcast. I have never heard of the 16:9 story though.
