Vaguely on topic:

Two years ago, for the European Cup in Portugal, there was a massive surge in promotion of widescreen televisions by the main electrical retailers here in the UK. The push was all about how fantastic it would be to watch the football on a nice big widescreen TV, instead of the ordinary square boxes most people had.

Of course, what the advertisers neglected to mention, was the fact that the broadcasts were coming from Portugal in 4:3 ratio. There would be no widescreen broadcasts from the European Cup, only 4:3.

Let's see, with this big HD push accompanying the World Cup, just how many people with HD sets are actually able to watch footie games in HD.
