I recommend a 4:3 HDTV because:
1. With an 16:9 TV, many DVDs will still have black bars on top and bottom, even after "stretching". This is because not all movies are shot 16:9
2. Most current HDTV broadcasts OTA (over the air) and by Satellite are still 4:3, so you see a much smaller picture. (I was really dissappointed when I found that out)
3. If the 16:9 TV is a rear projection, you cannot watch more than 20% 4:3 programming or else there will be uneven burn on the sides. Uneven burn on top and bottom on a 4:3 TV is not as noticiable because 4:3 programs are not generally high quality to begin with.
4. 95% of all current available programming is 4:3, some previous 16:9 HDTV broadcasts are being discontinued - like Monday Night Football
5. 4:3 HDTV are generally cheaper
Of course a 4:3 is not as cool.
