Well, I wasn't trying to start a discussion about LD per se, I was just going to bring up the fact that, if LD video is analog, then an anamorphic transfer of LD video to DVD would look better than converting letterboxed digital video into anamorphic digital video, right? I may be completely off the mark here, but I'm thinking that resizing analog video would not introduce ugly artefacts like resizing digital video would, since the resolution of analog video should be practically infinite (I'm thinking of a photograph taken with an analog camera, which can be blown up to any dimensions without artefacting -- versus a picture taken with a digital camera, which has a fixed resolution).
