For other countries where maing your own backup is legal, then it may be worth it if you have a widescreen TV that doesn't have a good scaler built in.

Then you could do it for free using avisynth/virtualdub. You could just do a resize and perhaps a limitedsharpen

Question: Would this actually make the picture sharper, or does it just make the picture you already have anamorphic and nothing more? I guess my question is does anamorphic in itself make a picture better, or do you have to make the picture better first and the term anamorphic simply means the act of filling a widscreen TV with as much info as it can?

(I sure hope I made sense LOL).
