OK, I am being melodramatic I suppose. Sorry. I don't really mean "unwatchable", I actually mean "not as good". Looking at (for example) the original release of David Fincher's Se7en in it's non-anamorphic ickyness next to the more recent release, the difference is remarkable. The Anamorphic version looks sharper, crisper and all-round better. The letterbox version looks fine until you see what you're missing. Watching Dr G's anamorphic DVDs just looks better than the zoomed EditDroid version. Watch both on a 4:3 display, and yeah. EditDroid DOES look better, but that's lost in the zoom.
