I know folk at Turner in the UK and they once told me that a lot of their market is TVs in european hotels, where the screens are still old 4:3 ratio 14in portables. I don't know if that's still the case but that's why CNN, Cartoon Network and TCM were still in the old ratio (and pretty low bit rate, too). Not sure if that's still the thinking. Turner is actually extremely profitable (Ben 10 being the jewel in the crown) so I'm surprised they don't address both the widescreen and HD issues now.
