How do you like your aspect ratio?

As HDTV flat panels are becoming more popular, cable programing hasn't caught up with it. How do you like viewing with your standard displays on widescreens?

My TV is like my bike. Old school.

62" mitsubishi DLP (and im renting a small ass 10x13 bedroom from a friend, it's about 14" from my bed, LOL have to lay against eh opposite wall to watch it) and i like things going from corner to corner. cant stand letterbox or sidebars. i got 62" of tv for a reason...

I have a 42"1080i plasma. For SD, I watch with sidebars. But I rarely watch cable because I have my 360 that I use a lot. Usually, when I do watch TV, if nothing's on the HD channels, I shut the bitch off and play 360. Same with my 26" HD LCD in my bedroom.

Yeah I run short and fat on SD tv and correct on HD.
