    People preferred it this way?

    Quoted: So if a network like A&E or TBS wants to simulcast their programming in both standard and high-definition, the older programs either need to have those black bars on the side to retain the original shape, or the picture has to be stretched to fill the screen.
    ...
    But is a stretched picture better than black bars? (I want to know your opinion on that in a second.) According to A&E and TBS — yes.
    ...
    I spoke with Dan Silberman, vice president of publicity for A&E Television Networks. “Research was done and people preferred it this way,” said Silberman, “It’s not a perfect solution."

      They must have done the research in a group full of people who actually didn't care. I hate the stretched shows.
